Add hyper links to worknotes

I need to add hyper links in work notes from flow designer . Tried below code . It prints the following message, but not as hyperlink.

 

URL works fine when I test this by pasting it in browser

 

 

 

 

var URL1 = "https://"+gs.getProperty('instance_name')+".service-now.com/$flow-designer.do?sysparm_nostack=true&sysparm_use_polaris=false#/operations/context/"+inputs.executionflowcontext; 

  var finalURL = '<a href='+URL1 +'</a>';

  var finalURL2 = '[code]' + finalURL + '[/code]';
 
  outputs.finalurl3 = finalURL;

  outputs.finalurl4 = finalURL2;

//Tried setting both finalurl3  and finalurl4  to worknotes in seperate tests. They added the followign message.

//Output on worknotes
finalurl3  :

<a href=https://XXXXXXX.service-now.com/$flow-designer.do?sysparm_nostack=true&sysparm_use_polaris=false#/operations/context/21900ef25fe82990fe67a6dfefeef4ae</a>

finalurl4  :
<a href=https://XXXXXXX.service-now.com/$flow-designer.do?sysparm_nostack=true&sysparm_use_polaris=false#/operations/context/21900ef25fe82990fe67a6dfefeef4ae</a>

Hi @pardhiv ,

I am not sure what is the error here. The update of the Incident record should be after the output you received from the action.

 

for testing purpose I have created a action with the code and output type as string and it worked for me. Please find the below screenshots.

Check and see if you have changed the output string in both scripts output as well as flow output.

Hi @pardhiv ,

Try below URL 

var url = '<a href="' + gs.getProperty('instance_name') + '.service-now.com/$flow-designer.do?sysparm_nostack=true&sysparm_use_polaris=false#/operations/context/' + inputs.executionflowcontext + '">' + 'Click here' + '</a>';


OR go through the below thread, It is similar to your requirement.
How to add a hyperlink to flow designer? 


Tried your code and assigned it to work notes. This is still not working.

//This is the output notes on worknote

<a href="XXXXXX.service-now.com/$flow-designer.do?sysparm_nostack=true&sysparm_use_polaris=false#/operations/context/00ab4b0fbd286910df2c53aeed801db3">Click here</a>

We can write a business rule .write below code .

var worknote = current.work_notes;

var link = '<a href="https://www.example.com" target="_blank">Example website</a>';  //here we can add your link;

current.work_notes = worknote + ' ' + link;

Please mark correct.
