automated birthday emails

I have created a birthday email zap, it works well and as intended. But the zap creates an error because the email id in the calendar description gets hyperlinked. Any solution to avoid this? zapier picks the data as mailto:emailid

Hi @automated birthday emails 

Try adding a Formatter step to replace “mailto:” with nothing: https://zapier.com/help/doc/how-use-formatter-functions#using-replace
