How to include checkboxes and hyperlinks when creating google doc from template

Hello there!

I have a Zap that is receiving some data through a webhook and creating a google doc based on a template. The Zap works well, however I couldn't find a way of properly creating Checkboxes and Hyperlinks in the generated google doc.

I have tried to use "[] " for the checkboxes or an html tag for the hyperlink but those didn't work and just got added as plain text in my Google Document:



Does anyone know if that can be accomplished?

Thanks

Hi @MPinheiro 

I believe that will involve using the GDocs API to do advanced data formatting, which is something I’ve implemented for clients.
