Hello, I am creating Zaps that send Outlook email drafts and I would like to set up the emails to include bullet lists and to use a specific font. I don’t see these options in the editor. Any ideas?
Thanks!

Hi @Illysa 

Good question.

You’ll have to use HTML to format and style the email.

Thanks for the quick response! The need to use HTML is a bummer though :).

You can ask ChatGPT for help formatting the email HTML.

True!

However, I don’t see where I could insert any HTML in the Action section of the Zap. Even if I select HTML instead of text, I don’t see the space for adding coding?

@Illysa 

The HTML would be added in the Body field.

 

<b>XXX</b> - bold 
<br> - line break
etc.
