How can you make an email address active on a modern SharePoint page?
I would like to make an email active - meaning the user can click on it and open it up in Outlook. Is my only option to create a PowerApp of is there any easier way to set this up?
ChristyRoachI've used both the Button and the Call to Action web parts to add an email link.
In the link, put "mailto:emailaddress"

ChristyRoach add a text web part to your page and just type in the link. Or add text and then select the link icon to enter the url. This will open a new email in the browser edition of Office 365 Outlook, not the desktop version.

I was trying to do the same thing and the field will not allow me to add an email address, I have https:// and it won't allow me type mailto:emailaddress over it.
Do you have any suggestions? ChristyRoach

martricedenson and @Rob Elliott: I ended up using the Call to Action webpart. You can see it in action at the bottom of this page. https://usbank.sharepoint.com/teams/SRC/SitePages/CCB-LIBOR-transition-support.aspx?csf=1&web=1&e=qC5cJahttp%3A%2F%2F
