Copy To Clipboard action does not copy to cliboard when the next action is Open Link. Is there a workaround?

Does it work if you reverse the action, Open Link first and copy to clipboard later?

I have dropped the idea to use this in my project. Suggest that you follow @ThinhDinh’s advice to submit a support ticket!

This is still not working. I just attempted to do this on an app I was building today, and no dice, can’t get it to work. I will create a “Bugs” thread with the details.
