Link URL
Rare. Allows for specification of absolute URLs when relative ones are provided by your data.*

*Normally, relative URLs are safe to use when interacting with a link on a website (e.g. /resources/applying-for-admission). When interacting with that same link in an email, however, absolute URLs are required (e.g. https://www.yourdomain.xyz/resources/applying-for-admission).

Subscription URL
Rare. Used when the original web address of the FUSE instance changes.** 
Original web address of FUSE instance

*Normally, relative URLs are safe to use when interacting with a link on a website (e.g. /resources/applying-for-admission). When interacting with that same link in an email, however, absolute URLs are required (e.g. https://www.yourdomain.xyz/resources/applying-for-admission). Google 'relative vs absolute urls' for more details.

**Consider this scenario: day one, you host your FUSE instance running FUSE Subscribe™ at https://www.yourdomain.xyz/site-explorer and many users create subscriptions over the coming months. Fast forward some time later and you decide to move your FUSE instance to https://www.yourdomain.xyz/resource-locator instead. Setting the Subscription URL ensures all of your previous subscribers under the former address continue to be supported.

HTML Formatting

When providing FUSE with custom HTML for your messages, keep in mind two 'rules:'

1) As with most email marketing software, only inline styles are supported. E.g. <div style="background-color: #097f9e; max-width: 700px;"> in contrast to a <head>-based <style> declaration.

2) Only code between <body> tags is supported. As such, no <head> elements, JavaScript, or similar. Sending FUSE tested "in-between the <body> tags" code is best.
