When you save links as part of an HTML code in an AMPScript variable, such as a paragraph containing a link to a page, you may face challenges in tracking these links.
Salesforce offers a great feature that allows tracking of such links using the “httpgetwrap” inserted right before the URL protocol.

There’s another topic for which official documentation often lacks sufficient information, but it can be incredibly useful when needed.
