Custom Email URL not working in browser

Question

I have built a survey using Survey123 Connect. In it I have a calculate field which creates an email hyperlink. The hyperlink works in the apps but not through the browser (which is where I actually need it). I have it set up as a calculate field called Qemail with the calculate field populated with the equation concat('Email the GIS Team') I then have a note field with the calculate field populated with the value ${Qemail}. As I stated in the apps this works perfectly. In the browser when I inspect the element the value is Email the GIS Team with none of the html content. Any ideas or is this a known issue?

Hi Mike,

Thanks for this.  My email actually does work as long as the survey is accessed through the app.  It is only when the survey is accessed through the https://survey123.arcgis.com/share/ browser that the email ceases to be treated as a hyperlink and does not work.  However, I appreciate the effort in providing details.

Hi James,

I read Ismael's blog and it was very interesting.  I am absolutely looking at implementing it for some of our processes.  Unfortunately, that will not resolve what we were trying to achieve here which is to create an email with details about a specific feature.  We are linking the survey through a custom attribute in a web map to serve through an app.  Therefore, individuals can create a survey and open an email to contact us about the feature they are referencing.  I will simply not have the detailed email for now.  I look forward to the future capabilities.  Thank you for you reply.
