🔗 How to embed a Coderbyte link using tokenized hyperlinks
You can use Coderbyte by inserting a dynamic, personalized link in other rich-text fields across Guide—like email templates, calendar invite descriptions, interviewer instructions, or direct messages.
Here’s how to set one up:
Navigate to the rich text editor where you’d like to embed the link
Type and highlight your link text (e.g., Join the coding session)
Click the 🔗 link icon in the toolbar
In the link URL field, paste your Coderbyte base URL (e.g.):
https://coderbyte.com/editor/sharing:EXAMPLE_ID
Click the token icon (🏷️) in the link dialog
Select the $candidate.email token from the dropdown
Your final URL will look like:
https://coderbyte.com/editor/sharing:EXAMPLE_ID?$candidate.email
✅ When sent, Guide will automatically replace $candidate.email with the candidate’s actual email. This ensures a personalized link for each interview without manual editing.
