Hi imamaja,

The string you pass as the message body in the JSON payload can be HTML, so you can format it that way. Just make sure you properly escape the characters like double-quotes to ensure the JSON is still valid.

For example, if you're creating the message with FreeMarker then use the ?json_string method on the string to make it JSON compliant.

Thanks,
Jeff
