URL Field

The URL field type is designed to store and render web addresses as clickable hyperlinks. It ensures that users can navigate directly to external resources, documentation, or associated websites from within the SnapApp interface.

URL Field Properties

• Basic Properties
• Validation & Enforcement

Note: Every field in SnapApp shares a set of universal properties, such as Display and Edit settings, that are configured during creation.

Basic Properties

The Basic Properties tab establishes the field’s identity and database mapping.

Validation & Enforcement

The URL field includes built-in validation to ensure that entered data follows standard web address structures.

Valid Formats

To pass validation, the URL must typically include the www. prefix.

Handling “Invalid URL” Errors

The system will block the record from saving and display an Invalid URL error in red text if the format is incorrect. Common triggers for this error include:

• Naked Domains: Entering the domain without the www. prefix (e.g., snapapp.com).
• Plain Text: Entering a name or keyword without a top-level domain (e.g., snapapp).
