How do I post a Teams message in HTML format to make URL links clickable?

Hi,

is there a way to post a Teams message as html format?
Currently it’s as text only and so e.g. URL links aren’t clickable atm when sending an automatic message to someone.

Maybe a switch which sets the content-type of the message to html or test if preffered would be very handy :)
Have a nice sunday!

I would like to add my vote, but I’m concerned that it’s been three years and there’s no progress yet. Is this really on the development list?

So sorry we missed your messages here previously @gaetansel, @Allanjjj, @cvelez, @GCS Operator and @ddaftech!

I’m happy to report that the feature request has since been implemented. So the Send Chat Message action now has the ability to handle both HTML and markdown notation in messages! 😁🎉

That said, please do let us know if you run into any issues in using HTML or Markdown with that Send Chat Message action. In the meantime, happy Zapping! ⚡

Hi folks, it seems I spoke too soon!

There’s since been a number of reports that this new feature is not working quite as intended. As a result, the feature request as been reopened while this is being investigated. 

Sorry for any inconvenience caused by this. Thanks for your continued patience and understanding here. We’ll be sure to keep you all in the loop on this and we’ll let you know once this has been rectified.

Hi there, folks! 👋

Thanks again for everyone’s patience here. I’m back with another update to share that the team have recently shipped some changes to the Microsoft Teams app which has fixed it. And so it’s now possible to use both HTML and markdown when sending messages with the Microsoft Teams app! 

If you have any trouble in selecting or using those new formatting options please do reach out to the Support team using the form here: https://zapier.com/app/get-help 🙂
