Hi @ashishbhatia

Can you try with the following sentence in the text description?

<html>
    <a href="url">Text link </a>
</html>

Hi Ashish,
As part of Vulnerability fix in 8.2.p3 Sailpoint changed defauld HTML rendering

IIQFW-1
[SECURITY] SailPoint Form sections with type `text` or `datatable` no longer render
HTML by default. Fields that need to display HTML must now provide the
`contentIsEscaped` attribute and set it to `true`. Any dynamic or user-entered
content in the field must be escaped in order to be secure.

Althought it is for forms I suspect similarly it may work for Policies

 <Attributes>
    <Map>
      <entry key="contentIsEscaped" value="true"/>
      <entry key="sysDescriptions">
        <value>
          <Map>
            <entry key="en_US" value="&#xA;              &lt;html>&#xA;    &lt;a href=&quot;url&quot;>Text link &lt;/a>&#xA;&lt;/html>&#xA;                  "/>
          </Map>
        </value>
      </entry>
    </Map>
  </Attributes>

Try something like that

The Ui is stripping most of the HTML code from the description (and almost all other elements as well).

I have create and tested a workaround for the Policy Violation Page. For the access request page a similar function can be created.

  • put the following text in the description: PLACEHOLDER
  • on the file-system create a new file in the scripts folder of the identityiq web application called: custom.js
  • place the following in this new file:
/*
* Custom Javascript functions may be placed here.
* */

if (window.location.href.indexOf("policyViolation") > -1) {
  var intervalId = setInterval(function () {
    var replaced = 0;
    $('.ng-binding.ng-scope').each(function () {
      // get element text
      var text = $(this).text();
      // check if replacement is needed
      if (text.indexOf('PLACEHOLDER') > -1) {
        // modify text
        text = text.replace('PLACEHOLDER', '<a href="http://www.google.com">Google</a>');
        // update element text
        $(this).html(text); // use html() instead of text() to render the anchor tag
        replaced = 1

      }
    });
    if (replaced == 1) {
      clearInterval(intervalId);
    }

  }, 1000); // 1000 milliseconds = 1 second
}

This Javascript replaces the string PLACEHOLDER with the link provided in the Javascript.

Policy Rule Config:

This gives:

I hope this will help you with your requirement.
