Automate URL creation to take user to Monday.com item

I found this discussion from 2023 but was unable to post a reply for help. see: Column That Automates Link to Monday Ticket - #2 by CharlotteK

I can’t believe I finally found what could be the solution we are looking for. I’m seeking help from a Monday.com expert please.

We send automated emails staff (Monday.com item owner) when items are due for action. We populate an automated email from Monday.com to the item owner and include item/column details etc. But, we’ve never been able to work out how to add a hyperlink in the email, to take the staff member immediately back to the specific item in Monday.com.

(As is, today, the staff member copies and pastes item ID from their email, and then searches for it in Monday.com to show the item. We want to skip this copy+paste+search step if we can).

However, coding is not my thing. The solution above uses the concatenate formula.

Whilst I understand the concatenate feature in XLS and the concept of using it to build a URL.But, I come unstuck adding the components. e.g. My board is called “Xiangpai Pipeline”, the board number is “6128766440”, our Monday URL is “smithandsmithlighting.monday.com”, but I dont know how to add this into the concatenate formula, nor where to obtain the “viewsid”, “pulses” or “itemID” info/fields.

I hoping so much someone online may be able to offer me assistance to solve our long sought after goal please.
