HTML in Zendesk Dynamic Content

Understand why HTML doesn't render in Zendesk dynamic content for triggers and automations.

Why doesn't HTML render in dynamic content for triggers and automations?

HTML does not render in dynamic content when used in triggers and automations in Zendesk. This is a known limitation, and HTML support is not expected in these areas.

To work around this, you can use Liquid code to ensure HTML renders correctly. For example, adding {{‘Some text’}} at the beginning of your dynamic content can help. For more tips, check the originalZendesk article.
