A mail template consists of general main data such as target format, importance, or mail notification confidentiality, and one or more mail definitions. Mail text is defined in several languages in the mail template. This ensures that the language of the recipient is taken into account when the email is generated.

Use of hyperlinks in the Web Portal

You can add hyperlinks to the Web Portal in the mail text of a mail definition. If the recipient clicks on the hyperlink in the email, the Web Portal opens on that web page and further actions can be carried out. In the default version, this method is implemented in policy checks.

Prerequisites for using this method

  • The QER | WebPortal | BaseURL configuration parameter is enabled and contains the URL to the API Server. You edit the configuration parameter in the Designer.

    http://<server name>/<application>

    with:

    <server name> = name of server

    <application> = path to the API Server installation directory

To add a hyperlink to the Web Portal in the mail text

  1. Click the position in the mail text of the mail definition where you want to insert a hyperlink.

  2. Open the Hyperlink context menu and enter the following information.

    • Display text: Enter a caption for the hyperlink.

    • Link to: Select the File or website option.
