Whe I am trying to create a draft email in Gmail from an event starting in Google Calendar I am using the description in Google Calendar to provide the information I want in the body of the email. When the draft email is created though I have </p><p dir="ltr"> everytime there should be a new paragraph. I am trying to get the email to look the same as the description in google calendar. I have attached screen shots. Does anyone know how I can get the body of the email to look like what is in google calendar?

- Set the Body type parameter in the Create Draft in Gmail action to HTML:
- Or add a Formatter → Text → Remove HTML Tags step to convert the event description from GCal from HTML to plain text, and then pass the plain text into the Create Draft step:
Hope this helps!
