Plugin doesn't work in ServiceNow - not long enough #45

Hi there, I'm unable to use this to generate a link in ServiceNow, it tells me "Couldn't create a unique link, please select a longer sequence of words." when I select a longer sequence it doesn't solve the issue.

See the screen recording.

Thanks!

Chrome has now built-in this feature right into the browser. In your screencast, it seems like the second context menu entry, "Copy link to highlight", is grayed out, which suggests link creation is not supported, maybe because the app is rendered to a canvas? Unfortunately the URL is not publicly accessible, so it's hard to tell what's going on.

You're doing it wrong! It won't allow links from fields in forms. Go to a WEB PAGE and try it,

Thanks for the update.
