All:
Has anyone been able to inject HTML into a Task’s Body through the Engagement API? I’d like to have a nice table for the user… Any thoughts on this? So far, I’ve put some in, using the /" for quotes, but the table is really wonky. Once they get into the Body then the formatting goes away. Any other ideas on how to put a table in?
Thanks!
Bryan
Hey @BryanHomey
I am surprised you got that far! I totallu see the value, but I am not if it is possible.
This is one of those questions that I like to get @piersg and @jpsanchez 's 
on.
They are the type of people who say things like “OK, this may sound crazy, but it just might work”
Thanks @dennisedson ! I dummed down the table, took out the formatting and was able to get an acceptable table in there. Sometimes… errr -- all the time, KISS works.
Thanks,
Bryan
I love when I am proven wrong 
Would be cool if you posted your working code so others can see and you can wow @piersg and @jpsanchez
I love to be wowed
Well -- @piersg @dennisedson Prepare to be underwhelmed!
Here is the JSON creating a Task through the Engagements API. I used a SQL Script to pull data and create it.
{ “engagement”: { “active”: “true”,
“ownerId”: BLUR,
“type”: “TASK”,
“timestamp”: 1615049235000,
“bodyPreview”: “Black Line Report Task”,
“bodyPreviewHtml”: “<html>\n <head></head>\n <body>\n <p>Black Line Report Task</p>\n </body>\n</html>”
},
“associations”: {
“contactIds”: [ ],
“companyIds”: [BLUR],
“dealIds”: [ ], “ownerIds”: [ ] },
“metadata”: { “body”: “<table> <tr> <th>Customer Information</th> </tr> <tr><td>LY12MM:\ </td> <td>$100.00</td></tr> <tr><td>CY12MM:\ </td> <td>$106.00</td></tr> <tr><td>Up!::\ </td> <td>$6.00</td></tr> <tr><td>UP Percentage!!:\ </td> <td>6.00%</td></tr> </table>”,
“status”: “NOT_STARTED”,
“forObjectType”: “OWNER”,
“subject”: “Black Line Call List”,
“taskType”: “CALL”,
“reminders”: [ 1613753235000 ],
“priority”: “HIGH” } }
That table!
I know an outlook client that would be drooling if it saw that
