To help you create links in your messages, use the following tips:
All links in your message content must be lower-case.
For plain text messages only, when a link is at the end of a sentence, be sure
to place a space between the link and the period. If the period is included
with the link, it will not work.
Within HTML message content, Connect handles link aliasing in the following
syntax:
<a href=”aliased clickable link”>name of the Link</a>
Connect cannot validate links to secure URLs. If you use secure links, you need
to manually validate them by using the unverifiable link tool at Rollout.
Do not use reserved characters in links whether the link is HTML or text.
Connect decodes message links from the message template and inserts them in the
database. If the message content contains a reserved character (such as +), the
system replaces the reserved character with the appropriate code (in this case a
space). This causes an error. If you do need to use reserved characters, use URL
Encoding for the link.
Note: If you send both HTML and Text content and you use the same link in both, the link is
saved twice in your database.
