Hello,

 

I am generating Dynamic link with 'Formula' tool and connecting it with 'Report Text' tool where I am using generated link field as hyperlink to generate text and use it as a body for 'email' tool. But then link is used as hyperlink in Reporting Text tool all '%' symbols in link itself are replaced with '%25'. And link obviously do not work in sent emails. Could anyone help to solve this problem?

Thank you!

Can you use a replace formula on that field?

Replace([fieldName], '%25', '%')
