How to add a clickable link

How To
1

I have my first client, who is a lawyer, that I have set up an automation scenario to post articles for him on LinkedIn. That part works great.
However, he has a software product for attorneys he developed and wants to add a link to it at the end of each article. He wants it to say “Check out this software [URL]” where the URL is clickable. How do I do this?
Thanks in advance.

Welcome to the Make community!

Does the link begin with “https://” ? What is the error message when you try that?

Hope this helps! Let me know if there are any further questions or issues.

HTML doesn’t seem to work there.

I read an post (can’t remember where) on how you need to use Google AppScript.

And for info, I tried with the make module “Create a document from a Template” too but didn’t work either.

Thanks in advance for the help !!!
And I think the owner of this thread may have had the same question :smile:

Have a nice day

To add HTML using the Google Docs “Create a Document” module —

Creates a new Google document by adding the content of HTML format.

You need to include the <body> tag as well, which you haven’t.

For more information, see https://www.make.com/en/integrations/google-docs, and https://www.make.com/en/help/app/google-docs in the help centre.

Hope this helps! Let me know if there are any further questions or issues.

Thank a lot @samliew for your help, it did work !
Thank you for always answering and trying to resolve questions!

I looked at the links you shared but can’t find the information you’re talking about (I’m probably bad at searching but did like to be more independent and helpful).

If you could indicate where you found the info, I would be delighted :blush:

Oh, Make just changed their documentation platform today, and quite a lot of information is now missing or broken.
