There were a number of people who have figured out ways to shorten their links on their reports by using custom form fields - unfortunately, the report I work on is not related to objects that can have custom form attached. What I'd like to see is a way to shorten a long link created via valueexpression to a short link eg

valueexpression=CONCAT("https://extraaaaaaaaaaaaaaalong_link_name")

to appear as a clickable

on the report.

I think we are all after more rational/easier to access URL's in reports or when doing our normal communicating as part of a being a PM.

A related request was to have a link that copied the project title and URL to the clipboard as HTML OR have an option to rationalize the URL to something like you see in Jira....

Please review and consider upvoting (as I have here).
