Special links are pre-prepared links that you can insert into your messages to volunteers without leaving the message screen. From directly within your message draft, you can find and add frequently-used links, including:
Invitation links to organizations, opportunities, shift selections, the Attendance Kiosk, and login pages
Links to training articles, videos, and courses for volunteers and managers
Download links for Bloomerang Volunteer’s iOS and Android mobile applications
Note: Special links are pre-made by Bloomerang Volunteer. You cannot create your own special links.
