My Mautic version is: 2.15.3
My PHP version is: 7.0.33-0+deb9u6
Issue: **Contact ID token on e-mails**
Solving this issue, I will be able to: **Send “CONTACT profile view URL” on e-Mails.**
This document bellow discribes the “Email specific tokens”.

> . . Contact fields. Company Contact fields. Mautic Component tokens. Email specific tokens. Landing Page tokens. . Preference Center Landing Page tokens. . Dynamic Web Content tokens. Contact Monitoring. Search filters. Alphabetical list. . . ProTip....
I would like to know how can I make a token such as **{contact\_id}**
So, I can generate a **“CONTACT profile view URL”** link to send to sales people such as bellow.
[https://my-mautic-install.com/s/contacts/view/\*\*{contact\_id}](https://my-mautic-install.com/s/contacts/view/**%7Bcontact_id%7D)\*\*
I have taken a screenshot to better explain it, please access it at: [Pasteboard - Uploaded Image](https://pasteboard.co/IUuYNPX.png)
I have seeing that it was already reased before as a future feature at the link bellow but I was not able to find any other moviment on this way:
> [@Allow access to contact ID in emails (i.e : {leadfield:contactId})](https://forum.mautic.org/t/allow-access-to-contact-id-in-emails-i-e-leadfield-contactid/10335):
>
> Description : I see a use case when we Mautic does a lead handover to our sales team, with the “Send email to user” action functionality. It would be very useful to be able to insert, in the email body, a link to the contact’s profile in Mautic in order for them to check the activity. Example : By writing “[https://mautic.achilles.systems/s/contacts/view/{leadfield:contactId}](https://mautic.achilles.systems/s/contacts/view/%7Bleadfield:contactId%7D)” in the email template, our sales team would see the following in the body of the email they receive: [https://mautic.…](https://mautic.achilles.systems/s/contacts/view/224725)
Please, someone can help me in how can I create this token **{contact\_id}**?
Thanks in advanced

Maybe I misunderstand your question, but did you try: {contactfield=id} ?
It is written here black and white: [https://docs.mautic.org/en/setup/variables](https://docs.mautic.org/en/setup/variables)
