You can use these system tokens to customize the position of special links in your emails.

The following tokens can be used as links in an email or email template:

  • {{system.forwardToFriendLink}}
  • {{system.unsubscribeLink}}
  • {{system.viewAsWebpageLink}}
NOTE
These tokens will not be clickable unless inside an anchor link. Also, they can not be embedded into a My Token.

Here’s how to add them to an email:

  1. Find and select your email, then click Edit Draft.

  2. Double-click in an editable area.

  3. Highlight the text you want to convert to a link which will have the token and click the Insert/Edit Link button.

  4. Enter the token in Link URL and click Insert.

    note tip
    TIP
    Copy/Paste the token you want: {{system.forwardToFriendLink}} or {{system.unsubscribeLink}} or {{system.viewAsWebpageLink}}

  5. Click Save.

IMPORTANT
If you’re using this approach to add the “viewAsWebpageLink” system token, you can not override it using tokens. Instead, use Add a View as Web Page Link to an Email approach which allows you to override “viewAsWebPageLink” using tokens.
NOTE
Don’t forget to approve your email when done.

Nicely done! Now you know how to add a system token as a link in an email.
