Creating a masked URL though Business rule

[MaharshiC]

Hi,

I want to have an URL pasted in one of my fields which i am doing using a br. The URL is a dynamic one. But I dont want the user to see the entire URL in the string field rather it should show only as Ok and when they click on Ok they should be redirected to URL. Is this feasible? I need this URL in  a string field and not variable.

Hi @MaharshiC 

As there's no OOB feature to achieve this, you need to create a custom macro component to meet this requirement.

Please go through the following community post to get more information.

Hope this helps.

@MaharshiC 

the text ok is not a URL so when they click it won't open the URL

You cannot achieve this requirement.

You can mask it though using the custom logic
