External Hyperlink Custom Field Input

The User Defined Fields section contains an input control selection named External Hyper Link Input. You choose a Base Url and input the variables for user input.

This quick configure option can set an easy input option for the user to complete and automatically creates the link when saved.

For example, you want a Google map to display based on clicking a link to a postal code.

Base Url: https://www.google.com/maps/place/{0}

The user input for the data field can simply read Postal Code and the {0} variable is completed with the user's input of the postal code.

The user sees the following input.

The result is a hyperlink to the correct maps location.

This is a simple example used for integration links which can prompt for simple data field information the user can easily finish themselves. More complex multi input box Urls can be deployed with a more powerful Link Map Configuration should you need something more sophisticated.
