Hi @Rose Farnham I compared the code and ours looks a bit different so I'm going to share an example of it here. Maybe you can discern what may be used for your code:
HYPERLINK('/apex/APXTConga4__Conga_Composer?SessionId='& $Api.Session_ID&
'&ServerUrl='& $Api.Partner_Server_URL_80 &
'&Id='& Id&
'&QueryId=a4j30000000PAsI,a4j30000000PAsX,a4j14000000lIaI'&
'&TemplateId=a4La0000000XZmK'&
'&DS4=1'&
'&TemplateGroup=GCM', 'Click Here','_blank')
Another great workaround for this issue is to place the URL paths within a formula field. I have a great Dev on my team that was able to update the URL so that it passes syntax testing.
Thanks @Josie Kelley This is what works with the custom link:
https://www.calculator.net/business-loan-calculator.html?cloanamount={!TEXT(Opportunity.Amount)}&cinterestrate={!Opportunity.Interest_Rate__c}&ccompound=monthly&cyears=0&cmonths={!Opportunity.CCTerm__c}&cpayback=month&coriginationfee={!Opportunity.CCPoints__c}&cdocumentationfee={!TEXT(Opportunity.Document_Fees__c)}
Thanks you so much
Hey @Rose Farnham. Are you able to share what you have in the formula field? I can try to compare it to what my team Dev used.
@Josie Kelley Thanks for your response. I was able to use your suggestion. Is there a way to pass parameters to the URL within the formula field? I need to be able to launch a website and then pass parameters to that website from Salesforce data. I tried using the data from the custom link but that didn't work.
Yes, the button works great because I tested it out there too, but unfortunately we were trying to reduce the buttons so I was looking for alternative options.
I ended up creating simple visual force pages to accomplish adding links to an element on the page.
I run into the same issue while migrating a Case page layout with custom links to Dynamic Forms. I ended up replacing custom links with custom button that provide very similar functionality.
This seems to be a valid workaround at least in my case.
Hello, Did anyone find a workaround on this? Trying to create a custom SF link in a Rich Text component but it doesn't accept the merge syntax for Account.Id...trying to think how else I can accomplish this.
