Additional Information

This issue relates to the allowlist of custom URI schemes supported on the platform. The current implementation includes standard protocols (http, https, mailto, tel) as well as ArcGIS-specific deep linking schemes (arcgis-navigator, arcgis-survey123, arcgis-collector, etc.) that enable integration with Esri mobile applications. Additional schemes have been added to support business partner applications and user-requested functionality.

Workaround

Manually add a backslash (\) at the start and end of the URL within the href attribute tag. For example: <a href="\https://www.<domain>.com\">Link</a>

Alternatively, encode the URL.
