Based on this link’s format, why wouldn’t it have been re-written for tracking?
A . The link should start with http or https to be automatically re-written.
B . The link should contain a wildcard to be automatically re-written.
C . The link should point to go.Marketing Cloud Account Engagement com to be automatically re-written.
D . The link should be populated with variable tags to be automatically re-written

Answer: A

Explanation:

The reason why the email link www.lenoxsoft.com was not re-written for tracking is that the link should start with http or https to be automatically re-written. Marketing Cloud Account Engagement automatically re-writes links in emails to track the clicks and measure the engagement of the recipients. However, Marketing Cloud Account Engagement only re-writes links that start with http or https, as these are the protocols that indicate a web address. The link www.lenoxsoft.com does not have a protocol, so Marketing Cloud Account Engagement does not recognize it as a web address and does not re-write it for tracking. The other options are not relevant for link re-writing. The link does not need to contain a wildcard, point to go.Marketing Cloud Account Engagement.com, or be populated with variable tags to be automatically re-written. These are features that can be used to create dynamic or custom links, but they are not required for link re-writing. Reference [Link Click Tracking]
