Project - Notification -Create a Button which on click redirects to that sepcific approval.

[Trupti Krishnam]

I have a notification which runs when the project state is Screening and Approval is requested (Here the approval will also be assigned to - to whom ever the project is assigned) .and it is sent to Assigned to Now on this notification I have to create a Button called 'View Approval Task'  which on click it should redirect to that 

Specific Approval task  Something like the below image 

I did tried by creating a below mail script but it's not working

var message = 'View Approval Task';

    var backgroundColor = 'background-color: #152456;';

    var color = 'color: #ffffff; font-weight: bold;';

    var fontSize = 'font-size: 12px;';

    var fontBold = 'font-weight: bold;';

    var fontFamily = 'font-family: trebuchet ms, geneva;';

    var textDecoration = 'text-decoration: none; border-radius: 2px; text-align:center;';

    var display = 'display: inline-block;';

    var padding = 'padding: 10px 20px;';

    var app = new GlideRecord('sysapproval_approver');

    app.addQuery('sysapproval', current.sys_id);

    app.addQuery('state', 'requested');

    app.orderByDesc('sys_created_on');

    app.query();

        if (app.next()) {

            template.print('<a href="' + link + '"');

            template.print('style="' + backgroundColor + color + fontSize + fontBold + fontFamily + textDecoration + display + padding);

            template.print('">');

            template.print(message);

            template.print('</a>');

        }

but it's not working

This is the corrected code you need to use. In the version you provided earlier, the link variable was not being populated. We need to pass a redirection link to the approval record. That’s why, in this script, I’m passing the sys_id of the approval record to generate the correct URL.

(function runMailScript( /* GlideRecord */ current, /* TemplatePrinter */ template,

    /* Optional EmailOutbound */ email,

    /* Optional GlideRecord */ email_action,

    /* Optional GlideRecord */ event) {

    // Get the instance URL (used to open the approval record in the native UI)

    var instanceURL = gs.getProperty('glide.servlet.uri');

    if (instanceURL.endsWith('/')) {

        instanceURL = instanceURL.slice(0, -1);

    }

    // Button/Link style settings

    var message = 'View Approval Task';

    var backgroundColor = 'background-color: #152456;';

    var color = 'color: #ffffff; font-weight: bold;';

    var fontSize = 'font-size: 12px;';

    var fontBold = 'font-weight: bold;';

    var fontFamily = 'font-family: trebuchet ms, geneva;';

    var textDecoration = 'text-decoration: none; border-radius: 2px; text-align:center;';

    var display = 'display: inline-block;';

    var padding = 'padding: 10px 20px;';

    // Fetch the most recent pending approval record

    var app = new GlideRecord('sysapproval_approver');

    app.addQuery('sysapproval', current.sys_id);

    app.addQuery('state', 'requested');

    app.orderByDesc('sys_created_on');

    app.query();

    if (app.next()) {

        var link = instanceURL + '/sysapproval_approver.do?sys_id=' + app.sys_id;

        template.print('<a href="' + link + '"');

        template.print(' style="' + backgroundColor + color + fontSize + fontBold + fontFamily + textDecoration + display + padding + '">');

        template.print(message);

        template.print('</a>');

    }

})(current, template, email, email_action, event);

Please refer to the image below:

on clicking the ‘View Approval Task’ button I will be redirected to approval record in native UI , can see in below image:
