Hi there, I want to send HTML emails from AirTable using the Send Outlook Email action in Automations. I need them to contain embedded images with external links and a call to action button at the bottom. Please can someone tell me if this is possible and if so how?

Only markdown as I understand it.

Some HTML is also allowed. I’m not sure which parts of HTML are supported and which ones are not, though.
Basic tags like <p>, <b>, <i>, <a href>
are all supported.
For fuller HTML support, I would check out Integromat’s Outlook modules:

Per this article, both <a> tags and <img> tags are supported in email automations. Formatting <div> tags does not seem to work. This article is not specific to Outlook emails, but I find these tags work in both Airtable branded emails and Google emails, so they probably work in Outlook emails.
You cannot embed an html button, but you can use a link that will open a webpage. You may even be able to use an image inside the link, where the image looks like a button.
