Using Microsoft share links in calculation fields

Hello,

I am setting up process documents that will be displayed in a calculation field.

These process refer to template documents which have been shared on OneDrive. The problem is that the one drive links have an ":x:" in the URL which podio then converts to an emoji.

Is there any way to stop this from happening so these links can be used?

Thanks for your help!

  Hi all,

  
  We made a fix a little while back for this and the Sharepoint URLs should now be seen as expected without any emojis

  Thankyou for your feedback!

  Hello Jasha,

  you can try to encode the colons. Replace the 2 colons with %3A
  %3Ax%3A

  Hi Rainer,

  Thanks for that idea.

  I'm not sure if that would work for some of the less tech savvy users in our organisation. Also, it would be super time consuming given the number of links we create and add.

  Aside from using some sort of link shortening tool, is there another way to handle this within Podio?
  
  Thank you!

  You can try something like this:

  var url = @text field with url.split("//");
  var url1 = url[0];
  var url2 = String(url[1]).replace(/:/g,"%3A");
  var url = url[0] + "//" + url2;
  url
  
  Not sure if that returns a valid MS share URL.
