Creating Links in Make.com Task Descriptions: A Guide

Have you ever tried to create a task in Make.com and wanted to include a link in the description? You might have found that it's not as straightforward as you'd think. You might have tried using standard markdown or HTML tags, but nothing seems to work. You might have even found a link to how ClickUp handles markdown, but it only tells you to use a Mac keyboard shortcut, which doesn't help if you're not using a Mac.

And yes, you can just put the full URL and it will get linked automatically, but what if it's a big CSV exporting link and looks ugly? This is why you might be looking for how to make a link in the task description while using the create a task option in Make.com.

Solution

Don't worry, the solution is simpler than you might think. The option is to use markdown. But in Make.com, you have to select MARKDOWN in the Content box. Then you just do simple markdown style links like this:

And that's it! Now you can create links in your task descriptions in Make.com without any hassle.

Troubleshooting Tips

If you're still having trouble, make sure you've selected MARKDOWN in the Content box. If you're still having trouble, try using a different browser or clearing your cache.

Summary

In conclusion, creating links in task descriptions in Make.com can be a bit tricky, but once you know how to do it, it's a breeze. Just remember to select MARKDOWN in the Content box and use the simple markdown style links. Happy task creating!
