URLs as Task Names/Field Entry
This may be an elementary question but I'm new to Wrike and wanted to know if there is a way to input a URL as a task name or field entry.
For example, If I am tracking analytics for webpages, instead of just titling my task the name of the website, how can I make the task name a clickable link that will open a new tab in my default browser? Similar to pasting a URL in excel, the platform automatically recognizes the text as a URL and makes it a clickable link.
I would also like the ability to have a mix of URLs and text task names within a given field. Please see example screenshot below.
Thank you for any help you can provide and please let me know if you need more details!
Hi Wynn, happy to see you on the Community 🙂 Currently, we don't offer such functionality. You can add links to the description field and also to the comments section, I wonder if that will work for your purposes? It would be great to hear more details on your use-case 🙌

Hi Lisa!
While this works, it's very inconvenient. As part of our services, we provide our clients with customized URLs and pages, manage URL redirects, and in one of our edge-cases, one of our team manages our event engagement planning by having the URL as the summary task name.
If i were to create a report or dashboard on a drill down of each of these, I would have to open each individual task to access the URLs for each while in my central location for storing this information.
If there is a way to create a dashboard where I don't have to double-click on the task to access the description, I'd love to know it.
I'm very new to Wrike so there may be something much more streamlined already in place, but I'm not sure of what that would be.
Thank you and cheers!
Hi Wynn,
Thanks for getting back to me! As we don't have such a feature currently, what if I moved this thread to the Product Feedback section? The Community members will be able to upvote your idea and it will be brought to the attention of our Product team.
Please let me know what you think 🙌
