Invoicing - Remove UTM tracking parameter from online invoice links
At present when you create an invoice and then use the triple dot menu and "get Link" option you are presented with a overlay which gives you the Invoice link that you can give to the customer. But this link includes an extra querystring parameter utm_source - I want a setting that stops this being added to any links.
The links currently look like this:
https://in.xero.com/XXXXXXXXXX?utm_source=newInvoicingGetLinkButton
And I want them to look like this:
https://in.xero.com/XXXXXXXXXX
They are long and ugly looking with the UTM parameter and current I have to remove this manually from every link. I also think adding tracking links to invoices is not a great thing for Xero to do unless we have an option to opt out.

To remove the UTM tracking parameter from online invoice links, the system should provide a setting that prevents the automatic addition of the utm_source query string when using the “get Link” option from the triple dot menu. This ensures that invoice links remain clean and professional when shared with customers. Providing such customizable settings is similar to how users look for trusted and straightforward healthcare solutions online, like the products available at Dr Gina Sam https://drginasam.net/products/, where clarity and user control are prioritized.

Definitely needs fixing. The extended URL looks unprofessional.

When creating an email to send to a contact the URL for an invoice or quote is long and “untidy”. Introduce the word “Link” that is associated with the unique URL to improve the appearance of system generated emails.

Agreed. I came here to report the same thing.. it's ugly!
At least hide them behind a shortened URL that redirects to the longer version with all the extra parameters.
