I have a survey where participants will enter in a web link in a open text field, say their favorite website to buy herbs… I then have an email that gets sent out to stakeholds who need to visit the website that the participant stated. I know I can use piped text to have it show exactly how the participant entered it in, but ideally I would love for it to be a clickable hyperlink so that they don’t have to copy & paste to visit the site, they could just click from within the email. You can create hyperlinks within an email, but I am only able to see how to do it for a static site, I need it to change the URL depending on the recipient response.

Solved my own problem - there’s not a clear “out of the box” solution but all you have to do is copy and paste in the text fields - I just had to open another tab to copy the fields exactly as there’s no way to select them from within the link task.
