Links in Important Alerts

[John.Clifton]

Web part name (as shown in web part properties) to which you’re suggesting an enhancement

Important Alerts
What is current web part behavior (or look) that doesn’t work for you?
Not able to add a link to the alert
This doesn’t appear to be an issue to implement as there are examples of solutions you can create yourself that replicates this functionality eg Low Code Solution for Intranet Announcement Banner in SharePoint - Applied Information Sciences

Thank you for this suggestion. This is actually already possible with a few small tweaks.

Here is what to do:

1. Find the “Alerts” list on the site and access it’s List Settings
2. Follow steps 1-2 below to change the Alert Body field type to Enhanced rich text
3. Inside your alert, follow steps 3-4 to link any part of the text to a hyperlink of your choice.
