### Remarks

When used on the [Web Channel](https://docs.xenioo.com/basic-concepts/publishing/channels/web), this action can be enhanced with basic scripting and HTML formatting to obtain specific text format or execute action on the target browser. Also, this action will automatically enrich http and https URL found inside the text and transform them in clickable links. If you wish to use a different title for your enriched links attach with a single pipe (|) like in the example below:
