I would like to copy a recordโ€™s link directly from the context menu, instead of having to find it inside the e-mail body:

Hi Ben! I recommend expanding the record and copying the URL in your browser address bar. If youโ€™re using one of our desktop apps you can type ctrl/cmd + shift + c, or open the File menu and click โ€œCopy URL to Clipboard.โ€ Hope this helps! :slightly_smiling_face:

Ben,

This isnโ€™t exactly what youโ€™re looking for, but itโ€™s another approachโ€ฆ

You can create a formula field that generates the recordโ€™s URL.

For example:
โ€œhttps://airtable.com/tblXYZ5U6MQbDEqM3/โ€ & RECORD_ID()

Replace โ€œtblXYZ5U6MQbDEqM3โ€ with your tableโ€™s ID. The calculated URL should point directly to the record using the tableโ€™s primary view.

You can also specify a view, like this: โ€œhttps://airtable.com/tblXYZ5U6MQbDEqM3/viwXYzK4JP4JDlHU/โ€ & RECORD_ID()

Great, this is what I was missing!

A bit cumbersome for my use case, but quite interesting indeed! Might be useful in the future, thanks for sharing!
