Hello all! I am wondering if there is a way to make text in a SendGrid Block email bold?

Thank you!

The SendGrid block now supports HTML! Just check the “Send as HTML” toggle when drafting your message.

I don’t have much experience with the SendGrid block, so I don’t know if this would actually work, but have you tried using HTML tags in the email text?

“I want <b>these words</b> to be bold”

It works here in the forum… :man_shrugging:

I tried that, but unfortunately no luck! It’s not a huge deal but would have just been used to call attention to some important info we don’t want our program participants to miss :winking_face:

I’m on a free account and can’t use blocks, so I have no way of testing this, but have you tried Markdown styling? Airtable supports Markdown for base description text, so maybe it’s supported in other places as well.

Bummer, no luck with that either! Thanks for the suggestion, though!
