When a friend uploads a video in the Idea Pin, when filling in the data after the Idea Pin title field, he finds a field
add a link
But I can't find it in my account??

Hello @abdoumehdi390 welcome to the PBC! Links on Idea Pins are in beta mode now, but they will be rolled out to all users next year.

You should keep a look out on the Product Release Roundup located here for any announcements. I hope this helps you.

Happy creating!

Thank you
How do I get demo mode now

@abdoumehdi390  I'm not sure exactly when the feature will be released for general availability. For now be sure to keep your app updated and watch for an announcement. I know that's not the answer you were hoping for, I wish I could be more specific.

For now you can add your link to the notes - that's what I do. I don't know if it does the trick, but what else could we do?

@veronikalipar  the 'clickable' Idea Pin link will be inside the details drawer under your profile picture, similar to how you already have on your pins. After using this feature since last June, I've found placing the link first, then text. It can be easily overlooked by users. The link will stay inside the built in browser and not outbound. An example is an Instagram link won't open the Instagram app, but will stay in a browser. I'll double check that in a day or so to be sure that's still the case.

I always place only the link in the notes, making sure you can copy and paste into browser.

Hi Michael, Thanks for yoru guidance.

Just so I understand, we won't know if we have that clickable link option until we load the images...is that correct? Thanks.
