When setting a bulletin message, it seems you are not able to have a clickable link, even when typing an entire URL out.
It will just show as plain text in the system message.
Can anyone confirm that having clickable links in the bulletin message is not allowed?
Hi again, @ben_leung. Our engineers have confirmed that it is not currently supported to place links with markup into the message text. If I hear of a workaround, I'll update you.
Thanks!

Hi @ben_leung. I am a tech writer here at Splunk. I am looking into this issue as part of responding to a similar question on this site:
http://answers.splunk.com/answers/241182/how-to-add-an-external-link-reference-into-a-splun.html#ans...
Currently I see that only a String value is accepted, but I am checking on whether you can put in a link with markup and have it work.
I will update you and let you know what I find out.
Thanks for your question!
Hello again, @ben_leung. Just wanted to update you on a workaround for now.
You can follow this syntax for external links in bulletin messages:
["URL" "Website display name" ]
as in
[http://www.example.com Example]
Please see this post:

Thanks and I hope this helps!
