Be able to use merge fields in a url rules engine email

Currently it is not possible to use merge fields in a URL from a SFDC email template in a rules engine email. It is not possible to map the tokens.

The use case is that they are trying to tokenize the url link using these merge fields.

I have a customer that would like to do this.

      Hey Alex:

      Where do these merge values exist?  If the format of the token in SFDC is ${!Contact.Birthdate} then it will show as an available mapping option in the Rules Engine for Send Email action.

      I'd imagine if they are tokenizing a url you might be able to accomplish this.

      Recommend to use copilot where this would be even easier.

      This is something I am working on as well.

      The fields I need to map to/tokenize are within the URL.  Based of the example below, would it be possible to do this in copilot as Sundar suggested?
