{{ /html }}

Overview

The HTML block sanitizes HTML before rendering. This is useful for content that can't be expressed in standard markdown, such as complex tables, custom layouts or embedded widgets.

Use the built-in blocks for content they support. For example, use a table block for tabular data and layout blocks for document columns. Their references describe the options available in documents and e-mails.

Including HTML

The content between {{ html }} and {{ /html }} uses an allowlist of HTML elements, attributes, and CSS properties. Scripts, event handlers, forms, iframes, and CSS URL loads are removed. Rejected CSS properties produce warnings. An authored id becomes data-id; safe links open in a new tab.

SVG is supported in documents and stripped with a warning in e-mails. Prefer simple HTML when the same content must work across formats.

Document variables such as $title resolve in text nodes. vis and image blocks embedded inside HTML render in place on both surfaces. Other grammar blocks and resource data pills are not supported inside HTML.
