Hello @mshealy 

I hope you are doing great. When ever we want attach then link in the email body for associated task we use “System Link”  variable which is <%#System.Link%> and if you wanna customize link for email body appearance. use this syntax.

<a href=”<%#System.Link%>” class=”btn” >Task</a> 

What ever you write at the place of “Task” will appear the same.

Thanks! Hope this helps.

Yes, If you click on that “Task” button will take you to the task screen, and which has link embedded. if you want the link then only use (<%#System.Link%>).

Not sure about the article or documentation.

when i use <%#System.Link%> it shows the link and works.

if i use <a href=”<%#System.Link%>” class=”btn” >Task</a>, it shows task but doesn’t go anywhere when you select “Task”, in other words, no hyperlink.

This should work, are you putting this into eform or directly into the step “Task Assignment Email” ?
