What types of URIs can be rendered as links in Zendesk agent comments?

In Zendesk, URIs with custom schemes can be rendered as links in agent comments. A URI is an address for a specific location, such as a mobile app. To render these URIs as links, you need to enter the custom scheme in the 'Render URIs as hyperlinks' field in the admin settings. For example, if you want the URI 'chrome://version/' to be a link, you would enter 'chrome' as the scheme. This feature is only applicable to agent comments.
