In the response 'Message' window at the bottom of the page, you will see some icons above in the header bar. 
You click on the green/blue world with a chain link...
In this window, the "Hyperlink Properties", which opens, you will see the following;

Link Type: [ Hyperlink or Email ]
Address: [ various links to choose from ]   [  **  ]  [ Preview Button ]
Preview: [  ***  ]

In the second row, the [ ** ] empty line, this is the place to add the URL that you have copied.
After you have 'pasted' the URL, hit the "Home" button on your keyboard, or hit the left arrow key to take you all the way to the beginning of the URL you pasted.
Now DELETE the first part of it all ( http://  or https:// ) as this is in the preceding "Address:" link window.
Then just click on [ OK ]  and it should appear.
