Hello-

Trying to add a button link that has a formula with another field that has the tracking number (FedEx) so when you click the button you are automatically taken to the page that tracks your package.

Thanks,
Scott

    Hey @Scott_Gardner1!
    Welcome in!

    So, you’ll need a field dedicated to the tracking number.
    Then create a formula field and use this formula format:

    
'https://www.fedex.com/apps/fedextrack/?action=track&trackingnumber=' &
TRIM(
    {Tracking Number}
)

    I added the TRIM() function as it acts as a sort of defense against basic data entry errors if you’re copy and pasting, etc.

    Here is the isolated link:
    https://www.fedex.com/apps/fedextrack/?action=track&trackingnumber=
    The tracking number just fits at the end of the URL.
