Since API version 1.1.14 news items may contain rich mark-up. A subset of HTML5 is used to facilitate this:
| Tag | Element | Description |
|---|---|---|
<a> |
Anchor | Hyperlink |
<b> |
Bold | Emphasize text by embolding |
<h1> |
Heading 1 | Level one heading |
<h2> |
Heading 2 | Level two heading |
<h3> |
Heading 3 | Level three heading |
<i> |
Italic | Emphasize text by italicization |
<img> |
Image | Inline image attachment |
<li> |
List item | Item in an ordered or unordered list |
<ol> |
Ordered list | Enumerated list (not deeper than 2 levels) |
<p> |
Paragraph | Divide text into blocks separated by a hard return |
<u> |
Underline | Emphasize text with underline |
<ul> |
Unordered list | Bulleted list (not deeper than 2 levels) |
News items with an HTML body (htmlBody property) will also have an autogenerated plain text body (body
property). In write context these two properties are mutually exclusive.
<h1>This is an <b>H1</b> heading</h1>
<h2>This is an <i>H2</i> heading</h2>
<h3>This is an <u>H3</u> heading</h3>
<p>This is a paragraph</p>
<ol>
<li>One</li>
<li>Two</li>
<li>Three</li>
<li>Nested list
<ul>
<li>Eleven</li>
<li>Twelve</li>
</ul>
</li>
</ol>
<ul>
<li>First</li>
<li>Second</li>
<li>Third</li>
<li>Nested list
<ol>
<li>Eleventh</li>

All kinds of files can be attached to a news item. This can be achieved by having an anchor (<a>) or image
(<img>) element referring to a file message from the list of attachments:
<img src="https://speakap.speakap.com/files/1234567890ABCDEF/"
data-eid="1234567890ABCDEF"
data-rel="attachment" />
{
"attachments": [
{
"EID": "1234567890ABCDEF",
"type": "message"
}
]
}
<a src="https://speakap.speakap.com/files/ABCDEF9876543210/"
data-eid="ABCDEF9876543210"
data-rel="attachment" />
{
"attachments": [
{
"EID": "ABCDEF9876543210",
"type": "message"
}
]
}
