With links, you can easily collect and share specific information with your employees.

Some common examples of useful links:

How to create a Link:

  1. Go to the Forms and Links tab.

  2. Click Create New Link in the top-right corner.

  3. Choose Web Link from the options provided.

  4. In the Settings section, you will have the option to select Show in Menu or leave it unchecked.

    • Show in Menu: The link will appear in the navigation bar for easy access.

    • Do not select Show in Menu: The link will be accessible under the "Links" section in the navigation bar, but it won’t be displayed directly in the main menu.

  5. Audience: Target your link to the right user segment or make it available for the entire organization.

How to manage your embedded links:

In-app browser: When you create a link in the link library, you can choose to open the link inside Spencer (in an iFrame) instead of in an external browser.

External browser: In cases where restrictions prevent embedding a link directly in the app, you can choose to open the link in an external browser.

  1. Add the link: When creating or editing a link, select the External Browser option.

  2. Follow the link: Once selected, the link will redirect you to the actual page, which will open in your default web browser. You can then view the content as intended

Please Note: Due to third-party restrictions, some URLs may not be embeddable in the desktop app.
