This would be very helpful for instance to create shortcut link into other systems that are not well integrated into Hubspot. With a text field storing the unique ID of the object we’re referring to, for instance, another field could be a link to that object in the other piece of software, using concatenation of a set URL template and the unique ID. The productivity gains for our team would be sizeable.
