I have a Rich Text variable in a Service Catalog item where I display a URL. I would like the URL to blink when users open the catalog form so that it grabs their attention.

Is it possible to make a URL blink in a catalog item. If yes, could someone please share the best or recommended approach?

since the variable is Rich text you can add HTML for that with CSS and use that class in your anchor tag

Something like this

<p>&nbsp;</p>
<style>
  
  .blink-link { animation: blinker 1.5s linear infinite; text-decoration: none; color: blue; } @keyframes blinker { 50% { opacity: 0; } }
  </style>
<p><strong><a class="blink-link" title="Click here to download" href="/sys_attachment.do?sys_id=a12309c9c3d3bed05b9c7fedd4013199" target="_top" rel="noopener noreferrer nofollow">Click here to download</a></strong></p>

Variable Config:
