 If you want to include a clickable button with your message, ButtonText and ButtonURI must be provided. If either of these is missing the script will return an error.
 The ButtonURI can only be a valid URI. Invalid URIs are rejected.
 Valid URI : 'http://www.controlup.com' or 'controlup://MyOrganization/Machines'
 Invalid URI : 'www.controlup.com', as it does not contain either http:// or https:// to indicate this is a website.
