Custom Property Type “Link” (Member Attributes)

In this article, we explain what the Custom Property type “Link” is and how you can use it.

What is a Custom Property of type “Link”?

A Custom Property of type Link allows you to store a URL as a member-specific value.

It is ideal for cases where you want to save individual links for each member.

The difference compared to the Text type is:

  • The URL is automatically validated

  • The link is directly clickable

Examples:

  • Personal website or portfolio

  • CRM- or tool-specific links

  • External profiles

There, you can click it directly.
