New Outlook: Links not clickable when sent via Monday automation with MS account

Platform discussions monday apps & integrations

The new Outlook no longer interprets URLs unless they are specifically coded as such (you can test this in Outlook Web, and the same behavior occurs in the new desktop app — with no option to change this setting).

When I send an email with a Monday automation:

  • If I use a Microsoft account (via the Monday integration) to send, the links are not clickable in the new Outlook.

  • If I send from a Gmail account, the links are clickable.

  • If I send manually using Emails & Activities, the links are clickable.

Do you see any solution to make the first case work?

Thanks a lot,

Charles
