Hello everyone,

I am having a problem with a link that is created on a XLSX template. Whenever i follow the link through excel it asks for my sign in credentials even though i am already signed in. If the link is copied and pasted it works. any suggestions?

here is the formula i am using in the excel sheet

<<concatenate(“https://www.appsheet.com/start/aec9c351-0241-4951-93b9-f695f0d4a37f#appName=Dispatch-954371&page=detail&row=”,[Issue #],“&table=Active+Alerts&view=Active+Alerts_Detail”)>>

@tony Any idea what could cause this behavior?

@BenH I think this may be a quirk in the way that links work in Microsoft Excel. Take a look at this stackoverflow thread for details: https://stackoverflow.com/questions/2653626/why-are-cookies-unrecognized-when-a-link-is-clicked-from-an-external-source-i-e
