Add clickable email for authors in LaTeX

In this tutorial, you will learn how to add clickable email for one or multiple authors in a LaTeX document.

To add email for an author you can do like this.

\author{Author Name \\ Email id}

To add the clickable email you can use the hyperref package and \href{} command like this.

\author{Author Name \\ \href{mailto:author@xyz.com}{author@xyz.com}}

You can use the [hidelinks] option with the hyperref package to remove the border around the link.

\documentclass{article}
\usepackage[hidelinks]{hyperref}

\title{This is a title}
\author{Author1 \\ Email: \href{mailto:author1@xyz.com}{author1@xyz.com}
   \and Author2 \\ Email: \href{mailto:author2@xyz.com}{author2@xyz.com} }

\begin{document}

\maketitle

\end{document}

Output:

add email of author.

Use \thanks command to add email

You can also use the \thanks{<email>} command inside the \author command to get the Email ID at the bottom of the title page.

\author{Author NameĀ  \thanks{\href{mailto:author@xyz.com}{author@xyz.com}}}

\documentclass{article}
\usepackage[hidelinks]{hyperref}

\title{This is a title}
\author{Author1 \thanks{\href{mailto:author1@xyz.com}{author1@xyz.com}}
   \and Author2 \thanks{\href{mailto:author2@xyz.com}{author2@xyz.com}} }

\begin{document}

\maketitle

\end{document}

Output:

add email of author.
