# How do I create a hyperlink in an email or document?

## Turn a long Wetu itinerary URL into clean linked text in your emails, so clients can click through directly without copying and pasting a lengthy web address.

**Quick Links**  
\- [Step 1 - Copy the URL and select your text](https://knowledge.wetu.com/how-do-i-create-a-hyperlink-in-an-email-or-document#Step_1_Copy_the_URL_and_select_your_text)  
\- [In Gmail](https://knowledge.wetu.com/how-do-i-create-a-hyperlink-in-an-email-or-document#In_Gmail)  
\- [In Outlook](https://knowledge.wetu.com/how-do-i-create-a-hyperlink-in-an-email-or-document#In_Outlook)

 **Note:** These steps are browser and application dependent, not Wetu dependent. The exact interface may differ slightly between versions. 

### **Step 1 - Copy the URL and select your text**

1\. In your browser, highlight the full URL in the address bar and copy it (**Ctrl+C** on Windows, **Cmd+C** on Mac).

2\. In your email, type the text you want to appear as the hyperlink (e.g. "View your itinerary").

3\. Highlight that text.

2\. In the dialog box that appears, paste the URL into the **Web Address (URL)**or **Address field**.

![6](https://knowledge.wetu.com/hs-fs/hubfs/Knowledge%20Base%20Content/Troubleshooting%20and%20Tech/hyperlinks/6.jpg?width=670&height=281&name=6.jpg)

3\. Click **OK**.

The text will turn blue (or your email's link colour) to confirm it has been hyperlinked. When the recipient clicks it, they will go directly to the itinerary.
