Displaying a https address on the Description field of a SCTASK

[KatheCorbett]

In Flow Designer I have a Description field on a Task that when the task is generated, the whole description is not displaying.

Is there a trick to displaying a https address in the Description Field on a Task? It doesn't need to be a hyperlink, just the verbiage.

Here is my task in Flow Designer:

And here is how it displays when the task is generated to the Assignment Group:

Hello @KatheCorbett 

One possible reason could be the max length of the field.

Configure the dictionary of description field:

• Right click on the field label
• Click configure dictionary 

Increase the max length of field

If the max length is less it truncates the string value and that could be the reason for the URL getting truncated.

Hope this helps!

Thank you so much!  The Description field does have a max length of 4000 in our system.  I'll have to do some more investigating.  I appreciate all your help!

description field is of string type and it doesn't support links etc

you can use work notes to add that link if customer is ok with it

If my response helped please mark it correct and close the thread so that it benefits future readers.

I’ve run into that before. Sometimes using plain text helps, or breaking the URL into two lines. Also, working with an MVP application development company can simplify tricky workflows.
