The example inline\_link function in [Links & Images in Log Output | Buildkite Documentation](https://buildkite.com/docs/pipelines/links-and-images-in-log-output)  
does not work when called from fastlane action.  
Only after disabling Fastlaned ANSI colors with the [FASTLANE\_DISABLE\_COLORS](https://github.com/fastlane/fastlane/issues/316#issuecomment-344061783) env variable the buildkite log makes the link clickable.

At times Fastlane outputs some links, which are also not clickable with or without the Fastlane colors enabled. Jenkins seems to recognise the links both with and without the [ANSIColor plugin](https://plugins.jenkins.io/ansicolor/).

Hi @pahnev!

Interesting! [https://buildkite.github.io/terminal-to-html/](https://buildkite.github.io/terminal-to-html/) is the library we use for ANSI rendering; I’m wondering if a plugin would be the best approach for this 🤔  
I’ll share your comments with our product team to analyze, in the meantime, you can check if crating your own plugin would suit your requirements.

Thanks!
