Placeholders for Hyperlinks

In addition to normal text, empower® mails also has the ability to dynamically replace hyperlinks within a signature. To implement this functionality, additional placeholders with hyperlinks need to receive an extension. Here, too a specific syntax is prescribed:

                <Protocol>replace.empower/<PlaceholderEncoded>

The last segment <PlaceholderEncoded>, refers to the placeholders explained above. The <Protocol> segment can consist of the following,

Segment:               <Protocol>                                  http://
                                                                               https://
                                                                               ftp://

Symbols that are unable to remain within an URL by themselves are encoded using HTML tags:

                #             à            %23
                 $             à            %24

When setting up a placeholder for an email, the hyperlink in Word should be the following:

mailto://replace.empower/%23%24Profile_Email_Value%24%23
