How to display a link in Response

At a glance

The community member is calling an API that returns a response containing an anchor tag/link to information about Samurai. When the response is returned as-is, the link is displayed as plain text instead of being clickable. The comments suggest that the issue may be due to the response being parsed as Markdown instead of HTML, and that writing the link text without the HTML tag may resolve the issue. However, there is no explicitly marked answer in the comments.

I am calling an API which returns following response, which contains an anchor tag/link:

Get more information about Samurai <a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Samurai" target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer">here</a>!

When i return it as is to the user its displayed as plain text response without the link.

Any suggestions?

Typebot bubbles parse Markdown, not HTML

So this would work:

Plain Text

Hi @William, did this work ?
Were you able to make the link clickable ?
I have a similar issue with the links from our API

If you do not write

Get more information about Samurai <a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Samurai" target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer">here</a>!

but

Get more information about Samurai here

it will work
