    How to add ULR to items into emails

    Hi,

    I am working with workflows and I noticed there is only 1 email-template with a universal but simple format.

    I think adding new templates would be easy. But, what I would like to do is to insert a URL to the controlled item of a workflow.

    what are the queries and variable to be used for this ?

    what is the format of a URL that can be called from outside Innovator (from the email message or another client) and which navigates directly to the identified item after log on ?

    Hi Tobias -

    The format of the URL is:

    http://[server]/[innovator]/Client/default.aspx?StartItem=[itemtype]:[id]

    for example:

    http://localhost/InnovatorServer/Client/default.aspx?StartItem=List:EAB29654E2CD4D30B376957788198B40

    so in the body of the email you can make the item number a link, like this:

    <p><font size="+0" style="font-variant: small-caps">${Item[@type="ItemType"]/label}:</font> <a href="http://localhost/InnovatorServer/Client/default.aspx?StartItem=${Item[2]/@type}:${Item[2]/@id}">${Item[2]/item_number}</a><br/>

    Hope that helps -

    Rob,

    thank you very much for you quick response. This is exactly the information I needed.

    Would be nice to have this in the standard email template. Or perhaps keep the existing template and add a second one with the URL.
