# Have the agent send hyperlinks

> In this guide, you’ll learn how to ensure your agent always uses clickable hyperlinks instead of showing full URLs.

## **Why use hyperlinks?**

Long URLs clutter the conversation and interrupt the reading flow. Hyperlinks keep your responses clear, helpful, and consistent with your brand.

<Warning>

<Steps>
  <Step title="Add the Instruction to Your Agent">
    To activate hyperlink formatting, simply add the instruction below to your AI Agent’s **Instructions**.

    > Whenever you provide a url, never show the raw or long URL. Always make it a clickable hyperlink using the format: [click here](https://example.com)

    This tells your agent exactly how to format links in all conversations.
  </Step>

  <Step title="Test Your Agent">
    After saving the instruction:

    1. Open the **Playground** inside your agent.
    2. Ask a question that requires a link.
    3. Verify that the response includes a **hyperlinked** phrase instead of a raw URL.

### **Example interaction**

> User: Where can I find the pricing?\
> AI Agent:
>
> You can find our pricing on the official Watermelon pages:
>
> * For an overview of plans and public pricing, [**click here**](https://watermelon.ai/pricing).
> * For detailed plan features, conversation limits, and add-ons, [**click here**](https://watermelon.ai/docs/help-center/plans-pricing/pricing-overview).
>
> If you tell me your expected number of Agents, users, or monthly conversations, I can recommend the best plan for your needs.

### **Best practices**

* Use descriptive anchor text when possible (e.g., **View pricing**, **Download guide**, **Register here**).
* Only use hyperlinks when they add value to the user.
* Test multiple example questions to confirm consistent formatting.
