How do I add a clickable link to a Custom Activity?

Adding a clickable link to a custom activity is a great way to direct mobile app users to external resources, policies, or websites, all from within the Kinatico Compliance app.


Before You Start

What You'll Need:

  • Administrator access to the Kinatico Compliance portal with the ability to create or edit custom activities
  • An activity page open that you want to add a clickable link to

Time Required: 1 minute


Instructions


Step 1: Add a Text View element

  • In the left sidebar of the Form Builder, locate the Presentation section and drag the Text View element onto the central section of your page.

⚠️You can only add clickable links to a Text View element (not an HTML Text element)


Step 2: Enter your display text and the link

  • Click on the Text View element you just added to open its properties panel.
  • Under Properties > General, click the Content box
  • Enter the display text inside square brackets [ ]    . This is what users will see and tap.
  • Without leaving a space, enter the URL inside round brackets ( )    . This is where users will be taken when the display text is tapped.

Example:[YouTube](https://www.youtube.com/)     

This will display the word YouTube as a clickable link that opens the YouTube website when tapped.

   


  • Click Save in the top right corner to save the page changes.
  • Click Next in the bottom right corner, then Publish to save the changes to the activity.


Common Questions

Q: Can I add multiple links on the same page? A: Yes. You can add multiple Text View elements to a single page, each containing its own clickable link.

Q: Can I add a link within other text? A: Yes. You can include a clickable link within a longer sentence in the same Text View element. For example: Please review our [Workplace Policy](https://yourwebsite.com/policy) before proceeding.
