Tips 

  • This task corrects URL format and invalid suffix, as well as pruning off parts of the URL beyond the domain.
  • This task does not validate the URL is a working URL.
  • This task does not validate the URL against any known email database.
  • Any URL that cannot be reformatted will be copied in its original form.
  • If an URL has no suffix at all, the task will add ".com" to the end of the email.
  • This task requires the use of a Reference Data Source that contains the list of valid suffixes on the Internet. We highly recommend you use the Openprise reference Reference – Domain Suffixes.

 

Examples of URL Cleanup 

  • "https://www.openprisecloud.com/daass/#/support/" becomes "openprisecloud.com"
  • "點看.com" becomes "xn--c1yn36f.com" if the Punycode conversion option is turned on
