Add a Hyperlink to Text in a Salesforce Email Signature in Classic and Lightning Experience

To add a hyperlink to your Salesforce email signature, you will enter the anchor tag syntax directly into the Signature field in your personal email settings.
Important note: HTML tags in email signatures fall outside the scope of Salesforce Support. This guidance is provided as a courtesy. For full HTML documentation, see HTML5 Tutorial on W3Schools.

Access your Email Signature settings

To open the Email Signature settings, navigate to the following location based on your Salesforce interface:

• Lightning Experience: Click your profile picture (top right) > Settings > Email > My Email Settings
• Salesforce Classic: Click your name > My Settings > Email > My Email Settings

Add a hyperlink to your signature

In the Signature text box, add an anchor tag using the following structure:

• The opening tag contains href= followed by the destination URL in quotes.
• The display text (what users see and click) goes between the opening and closing anchor tags.
• For example, to create a link that reads "Link to Salesforce Login" and goes to the Salesforce login page, you would type the opening anchor tag with the URL, the display text, then the closing anchor tag.

To link an email address instead of a URL, use mailto: followed by the email address as the href value.
Important tip: Type the anchor tag syntax directly into the signature box rather than copying and pasting from another application, as pasting can introduce extra hidden characters that break the link.
Click Save when done.

Verify your email is in HTML format (Salesforce Classic only)

When sending an email from Salesforce Classic, confirm the email is in HTML format:

1. Open the email compose window (after clicking Send an Email on a record).
2. Look for the Email Format option near the top-right of the page, next to the To field.
3. If it shows Text-Only, click Switch to HTML.

If you send a text-only email, the hyperlink will not render and the raw anchor tag syntax will appear in the email body instead of a clickable link.
