Link to Open Email in Form


Badge +5

Hello everyone.

 

I am wanting to add a link at the bottom of a form that once clicked, it will open a blank email to a particular email address.

 

I am looking around to see if there is documentation for this but not seeing anything.

Hi,

 

You will want to use a data label control and set it to be Literal. In the properties box, you can also put the content of what you want the mail to link to do in the "Text" field.

Now, if you want to get fancy and have a link that is a bit more dynamic, you could leave the Text box blank and configure an expression which would allow you to mix in some runtime values into your link to give it more flexability.

 

For information on mailto links, check out this post on mozilla: https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/Web/Guide/HTML/Email_links

 

Hope this helps.
