Contact us email button

Good day all,

I don't want to recreate a wheel if it is already available. Honestly I don't find any widget. I have checked "Share" widget which creates a map link however it is not required functionality. I am required to create a button which opens a new email. It should have option for email "gis@xxx.com" and subject "question". Please provide detail instructions! Thanks a bunch!

You can use the About widget and add whatever text, images, and email you like. User would ckick to invoke the widget and invoke the email client when the email link is clicked.

Hi Ramy,

You could change the config.json properties from the main WAB folder where the links are located.

  "links": [
    {
      "label": "Email Us",
      "url": "mailto:gis@xxx.com?subject=Question"
    },
  ],
