It is now possible to have a LinkedIn logo as a hyperlink, rather than having to use a text LinkedIn URL link.
To implement this in a Word report template yourself, you will first need to add a LinkedIn logo where you want it in your template. Resize the logo as necessary, then right click it to open the Alt Text panel (1). Add one of these field names to the Alt Text panel for the logo image (2).
${candidates.linkedin.link} (for project templates)
${candidate.linkedin.link} (for candidate templates)
When the report is run, the logo will become a clickable hyperlink to the profile in LinkedIn.
An example project template and a LinkedIn Logo are attached below (open the FAQ full screen to see them).
