Your content channel should know how to build a URL to a specific content type. To make your content channel work correctly with a content type you have to specify URL generation template. 
To define URL template:

  1. Go to the "Content Type Settings" form 
  2. Enter the URL generation template into the "Value" field:


The URL generation template uses following parameters:

    • [ROOTALIAS] - your website address. Usually set when adding a new connector on "Add Connector" page
    • [PORTALID] - id of a portal
    • [CONTENTTYPE] - content type
    • [CONTENTID] - content id
    • [CULTURECODE] - culture code of a website page
    • [CULTURECODEID] - culture code id
    • [CULTURECODESLUG] - alternative culture code used by website to align proper language version by language slug in URL (could be used for episerver)
    • [PATH] - content path regarding the [ROOTALIAS]

    Here is an example of a simple URI template: "[ROOTALIAS]/[CULTURECODE]/[PATH].aspx".

    And that is an example of a link built by system in this case: "http://episerver.ilangl.com/en/sample.aspx/".

Note: URL generation template is not applicable when working with a files connector.
