Gainsight CS/NXT - field type URL - short description at the object level

Proposed Enhancement: Short Display Text for URL Fields in Gainsight

Introduce an optional “Display Name” (short description) property for fields of type URL/HTML at the object level in Gainsight.

• This enhancement would allow admins to define friendly, human-readable link text (e.g., “Visit Our Site”) instead of exposing long raw URLs in Reports and Data Designer.
• The system would render the field as an HTML anchor (<a> tag) using:
  • The stored URL as the href
  • The defined short description as the visible link text
• Example output:

  HTML

  <a href="https://example.com" target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer">

  Visit Our Site

  </a>

Value / Benefit

• Improves report readability and UX
• Eliminates need for manual HTML transformations or workarounds
• Standardizes link presentation across Reports, Data Designer, and downstream usage
