Is it possible to allow code snippets in Rich Text multi-line text box?

Posted on by 99

Hi All - 

 

I'm building a PowerApp that will be used as a ticketing system for our IT team. 

 

The app will have a Comments form that submits to a SharePoint List. This form will be used by the IT team to enter notes against the ticket. Often times, they'll need to enter code snippets into their comments. 

 

I'm struggling to figure out how to enable this. I've tried creating the SharePoint column as Multi-Line Text and allowing Rich Text, but that doesn't seem to give me the option to embed code snippets.

 

Does anyone know if this is even possible and if so, how?

 

Any help or insight is greatly appreciated!

    Hi @tsparkman,

    Can you try to set the Multi-Line of text field in SharePoint list to Plain text and then submit your field data through PowerApps.

     

    I did a quick testing from my side, this is how the multi line of text field looks on SharePoint list item form:

    Let me know what happens with this setting for you.
