Usage examples

  • Use the default 'primary' variant when you want to link to another page or contact record in HubSpot.
  • Use the 'light' variant when you want to include a link on a dark background.
  • Use the 'dark' variant to include a link in an alert.

Guidelines

  • DO: make link text concise and contextual.
  • DO: use the 'destructive' variant sparingly and only when the action can’t be undone.
  • DO: always open links to pages outside of the HubSpot app in a new tab (external: true).
