I was wondering if there was a way to use markdown in messages sent via an Oath application. I see that there is an ‘“is\_markdown\_support”: true’ option for team chat apps, however, no such options seems to exist for the ‘/chat/users/{userId}/messages’ endpoint.

I’m wondering if there is a work around or perhaps plans for markdown support in the near future.

Thank you.

Hi @joshua.allen

I dont think the feature is available at the moment. We will announce it in our changelog ([https://devsupport.zoom.us/hc/en-us/articles/10007372381325-Developer-Changelog](https://devsupport.zoom.us/hc/en-us/articles/10007372381325-Developer-Changelog)) if it becomes available.

Thank you for the response. Makes sense, I just wanted to check if I was missing anything. I’ll be very excited when/if that day comes.
