How to create a "My Account" Link in emails

Do you want to add a link to a patron's Primo account in their emails? Here's how to do this. Note: you must have the letter administrator role to edit this. 

  1. Go to General Configuration > Configuration Menu > Other Settings
  2. Find the email_my_account parameter and add the direct link to your log in page. If you are finding that your page is not linking directly to the log in page, make a one small edit and replace "search" or "login" with "account": https://sjsu-primo.hosted.exlibrisgroup.com/primo-explore/account?vid=[your school code]&sortby=rank&lang=en_US.
