Send text / markdown with syntax highlighting

[AdrienPensart]

Hello,

do you have an example to send json text with syntax highlighting ?

I tried with : text = "```json\n{"key": "value"}\n```"

or markdown "```json\n{"key": "value"}\n```"

It is printed in a code-block, but without syntax highlighting, it works in heavy client Webex teams. Or how do you simply colorize a message ?

It doesn't look like this is supported. I even tried sending the same HTML that the desktop client creates when you send code highlighted like <pre><code class=\"language-json\">{&quot;key&quot;: &quot;value&quot;}\n</code></pre>.

confirming this issue. I am unable to get syntax highlighting to work for any language when using REST request to send a message.

I believe this is a known issue I've reported to the Webex API team previously - you might want to also report it to them directly yourself to help raise visibility/priority (https://developer.webex.com/support)

Any updates or workarounds?

Closing this issue as it is approximately three years old and appears to have been an issue with the Webex APIs and not the Python SDK.
