URLs are not hyperlinked in slack email for splnuk report

Hi, I’ve created some scheduled Splunk reports with inline tables in the email body. We're sending these reports to a Slack channel via email, but the URLs appear as plain text in Slack, while they are hyperlinked in Gmail. Is there a workaround to ensure the URLs are clickable in Slack?

Also how to enable hyperlinks for URLs in report(not dashboard)

I think this is a feature of gmail which slack doesn't have i.e. gmail recognises the text as being a website address and converts it to a link, slack doesn't do this. Try sending a text to a gmail account with just a text address of a website and see if gmail converts it to a link.
