Custom Link based on existing record

[ryanmerolle]

Server (please complete the following information):

• Snipe-IT Version 5.1.14
• OS: [e.g. Ubuntu, CentOS] Docker
• Web Server: [e.g. Apache, IIS] Docker
• PHP Version Latest Docker included php

Is your feature request related to a problem? Please describe. It would be nice to create links for all items of a snipe-it data model to create links/urls using a templating language. Said custom link would have access to all fields and custom fields related to the data model.

For example I create site ids for each datacenter and not offices.

Describe the solution you'd like Example Doc: https://netbox.readthedocs.io/en/stable/additional-features/custom-links/

NetBox uses Jinja for both the text and the url creation. If I create a custom link for locations I could set conditionals in the text logic to as to whether I should display the link, and I can put conditionals in the logic for the url creation.

Example:

{"Text": "{% if location.type == "datacenter" %}{{ obj.name }} Data Center Rack Elevations{% endif %}", "URL": "https://netbox.example.com/sites/{{ obj.site_id }}"}

Describe alternatives you've considered

1. Use a custom field for each model set as a data type of url.
2. Statically input data into each custom field for each record.

Additional context My example uses jinja2 templating and python conditionals. In no way is this what I am suggesting, it was just an example of how a similar feature works for other projects.
