I am working on an automate flow that emails a share point page to a list of subscribers whenever the page is updated.
Everything works except the links contained in the email (/page). On share point i am able to navigate to the link however in the email the page redirects me to /sites/xxx/xxx.aspx. It is missing the tenant information.
Is there a setting i missed or something that is preventing sharepoint from including the full link when sending the email?
I made sure the full link was typed when the hyperlink was created and am using an HTTP to share point (in automate) and inserting the "CanvasContent1" into the email. I checked the html being sent and the link title is given as the full link but the href is given as /sites/xxx/xxx.aspx.
Thank you for everything
On a SharePoint page, links will be converted to relative links when the page is saved.
If you copy the page content as rendered into an email, then, yes, the tenant will not be included in the link, since the link is never intended to be used outside of the context of the page, where the link works fine.
So, you need to change your approach when emailing the page. Maybe email just a link to the page, then people can take it from there. Or, manipulate the html content in PowerAutomate and replace /sites/xxx with https://Yourtenant.sharepoint.com/sites.xxx

I am importing/creating drafts in Gmail using the Gmail API. After creation I'd like to redirect the user to the Gmail UI with the opened Draft in the composer window.
I made it work properly for https://mail.google.com/mail/#drafts?compose=[MESSAGE ID]. Other urls I found here also worked well. Gmail is doing some redirects and eventually the composer window is opened with the draft.
Now my issue:
If the user has not enabled "Conversation view" this will not work at all. The redirect will then result in https://mail.google.com/mail/u/0/#drafts?compose=new and only an empty, new composer window is shown and a new draft is created by the UI.
If I open the draft directly the ID-format is different. https://mail.google.com/mail/u/0/#drafts?compose=hJzgZpSqgLQcCWgZqnlNRzRBfMbjZVnZklzvcFxhQCdwT... and I have no idea if this format can be generated somehow.
Does anybody has an idea or experience to also make it work with this UI setting. How I can force Gmail to load the draft into the composer window?
Thanks in advance.
If you have Email Threading > Conversation View enabled
Make use of the following URL
https://mail.google.com/mail/u/0/#inbox?compose=DRAFT_MESSAGE_ID
If you have disabled the Email Threading > Conversation View option
Make use of the following URL
https://mail.google.com/mail/u/0/#inbox/DRAFT_MESSAGE_ID
Additional information
The main difference between them is that the first is treated as a conversation while the second example is not.
You can use #drafts instead of #inbox in the URL.
The number after .../mail/u/ is the session you have opened
You can retrieve the DRAFT_MESSAGE_ID by making a request to the API
You can approximately generate the compose ID by yourself, there are some examples out there (not recommended). I strongly recommend you to use the DRAFT_MESSAGE_ID instead.
This appears to still be an issue the one solution I did find was that you can find your draft directly (even though it would be the last draft) and go through multiple accounts by redirecting to
https://accounts.google.com/AccountChooser?authuser={user account}&Email={email account}&continue=https://mail.google.com/mail/#search/rfc822msgid:CAMU-31NcJCVHyGNsAycRKfuS0nMonoaZ6wFMD90Sej996qjuPQ#mail.gmail.com
You need to get your message id toi replace the area from <> from your draft. So you'll have to create the draft first. Get the google message ID, then use that with messages/get to get the Global Message Id (also referred to as message id) and then use that with a search. At this point you'll open a page with a search to a single draft but it will not be opened. Your users will have to click on the one message. Unfortunately there does not seem to be a way to have the good way work for conversation view, and this way work for non.
I tried many different URLS and nothing worked. As noted in the original question, it might work that you could link to the full URL but I see no way to get that. If you spend long enough working with an email you'll even find that ID changes so they aren't even stable within a single day.
Another solution that could work is as explained:
https://mail.google.com/mail/u/0/#inbox/DRAFT_MESSAGE_ID
But as noted this does not open the draft on the first time you go there. It seems you have to travel to that link 2 times in a row to get the message to appear. I guess you could go to the page maybe inject some javascript to go to the page again but I don't know how to do that.
I have created a contact form under Forms with first name, last name, and email that is designed to sign up people for a newsletter. I then created a page so when people click on the link placed on the home page it takes them to a page with the contact form.
Right now when I test the subscribe form out, the data does to to the "back office" where it can be retrieved. However, the information I entered is still in the text fields and, unless you notice the small flash of the web page, one might think nothing happened.
I'd like to know how (or be directed to somewhere in the Kentico 8.2 Documentation) I can make it so that the fields clear and a message appears saying "You have been subscribed to the newsletter." That message can either appear on a separate page on the web site, or send a message to the user email, or both. In the Email Marketing part under the templates there are Subscribe and Unsubscribe templates, but I don't know how to use those.
The other issue is creating an Unsubscribe link. Ideally that will open up to a new page saying "You have been unsubscribed." Kentico 8.2 has an unsubscribe page you can create where the user enters in an email address and then hits the Unsubscribe Request button, but I'd rather not do that. As it stands, I did create a page with that form and tested it, but it doesn't seem to work.
When you edit your form, under general tab, there are settings for what will happen after the form is submitted:
Display Text
Redirect to URL
Clear Form
Continue Editing.
Currently you're using the standard Forms application for something which can be managed through the Newsletter/Email Campaign module. Read the documentation more on how to configure this vs. using the Forms application.
Essentially the steps you will do are:
Create your newsletter following the directions in the linked documentation.
Place a newsletter subscription webpart on your page template and configure it to the newsletter you want them to subscribe to.
Use the out of the box unsubscribe feature to allow users to unsubscribe to your newsletter. No need to add any page to the content tree but you can if you want OR just use the OOTB functionality.
If you follow the documentation you should be able to get it setup properly vs. using an online form.
Working on log analysis, I found a string with odd syntax and contents, by parsing page field of web log (a webshell?):
/campaign/(f(2ewt_ygmarlagti7sw4tvhj0zk17klgxnhnk1aawgtixm5x-2qmvsvouolvaffrhitumf4wnk496p2dbzmkc3ywfloksiixdtrlawmt78f_mg-45kdzzpdlnogeishkcgtohttp://www.facebook.com/externalhit_uatext.phptelf6gqmu2ia0i1j5lfgmcvw1))/home/index
Could someone guide me how to decode this string and find a clue ? Also why is the following:
http://www.facebook.com/externalhit_uatext.php
included in the string?
I am quoting https://www.facebook.com/externalhit_uatext.php
Facebook allows its users to send links to interesting web content to other Facebook users. Part of how this works on the Facebook system involves the temporary display of certain images or details related to the web content, such as the title of the web page or the embed tag of a video. Our system retrieves this information only after a user provides us with a link. You may have found this page because a Facebook user sent a link from your website to other Facebook users. If you have any questions or concerns about any links or content sent by one of our users, please contact us at legal#facebook.com.
My guess is that someone posted a link to your website to Facebook and someone clicked on that link (visited your website through that link). The (probably) encoded stuff seem a bit random though. If I were you I would either post a link from my website on Facebook, click on it and see if I get something similar. If it doesn't look like that, I would contact legal#facebook.com to clarify whether it is linked to them.
I am trying to figure out how to email out one item from a list by when you have an item clicking on a button as a web part. Sort of like when you create a print button and it prints out just the one item.
I don't want all of my users to have to download anything. Is there a way just to code the webpart to create a button where your outlook email pops up with a new email and the list item and details are in the body of the email?
While it is possible to build a button that would use JavaScript to scrape the contents of a specific element on a page (since you are building client side script) and put them into the body of an email, there's a lot of formatting issues that can arise there since non-text elements might be lost, styling might drop off and there's the potential for XSS, etc. You would also have to edit the item template for that button to show up.
You can also build a custom action that sends the content of the item through email with a workflow. This requires a bit of dev work in SharePoint that you may or may not be familiar with.
Additionally, if they don't have access to that site, why would you automate sending them content from it? If it's content they should have access to, why not put it in a list/library that is more tailored to their permission level?
Is it possible to have a field in the current item be changed by clicking a URL? The field would be a choice field with predefined choices.
Such as if the item field is currently:
Status: 2
If a user clicks the link, the field would now be:
Status: 3
If not, is there any other way for a user to easily change a field in the current item without actually haveing to visit the item?
Thanks!
Not Out Of The Box (OOTB) - but you've a few options.
Write an ASPX page to do what you want
Use something like SPServices and javascript to update the list item via the web services.
Use the Client Object Model (2010 only)
By the way - changing stuff on a 'get' can be dangerous as you can do malicious things - for example imagine you have a page that deletes the users account without any prompting (exact example doesn't matter) - what if someone clicks on that link by mistake or even worse what about an email sent with an image with that page as source URL - simply viewing the email could delete the users account.
It's not possible by using a GET request, but SharePoint 2010 is offering a RESTful API to manage ListItems from any client
The REST API is located within the virtual WebServices folgder under each SharePoint Site.
http://YourSharePointSite/_vti_bin/ListData.svc.
To perform an update on SharePoint ListItems you have to create a PUT Request. For more information on SharePoints REST API you should have a look at this MSDN site, there are also a lot of samples linked from this article.
