Axibase Time Series Database

Link Functions

Overview

These functions return URLs to ATSD pages based on database URL, set the server.url property, and the current window context.

URLs are automatically inlined for email notifications and webhooks that support inline links.

Alternatively, manually assemble inline links using syntax supported by the webhook target.

  • markdown
[Error Messages](${serverLink}/messages?entity=${entity})
  • pipe (used by Slack)
<${serverLink}/messages?entity=${entity}|Error Messages>
  • html
<a href="${serverLink}/messages?entity=${entity}">Error Messages</a>
