2) The instance is in Fuji. The earlier email notifications have Message field where we type our HTML code, but now I find only message HTML field. I couldnt find this Message field anywhere in my new notification. Why is this so?

Hi Poojitha,



Can you give more explanation on item 1, what are you trying to achieve ?



for second issue, try click 'Switch to Rich HTML Editor' button on top.



Cheers


Syed.


Hi Syed,



For this, I found the solution . I used a business rule to get a url to use it in email notification. When I am using this script in Message HTML box: <a href=${event.parm2}>Click here</a>, and on saving the form it automatically turns to a link. And when this email is triggered and when the link is opened, it says "page not found". This was happening because: the url which I am receiving from the Business rule is appended to the instance url.


For example: The link from the business rule: https://<instancename>.service-now.com/<etc>


And the link opened via sent email is: https://<instancename>.service-now.com/https://<instancename>.service-now.com/<etc>



Instead I tried using mail script.


<mail_script>  


template.print('<a href=${event.parm2}>Click here</a>');  


</mail_script>  


It did work.



I dint find any button on the form. Could you tell me how to switch back to Rich HTML Editor?



Thank you,


Poojitha
