Using Power Automate to Post a Message to Viva Engage (Yammer) and would like to use Rich Text

I am trying to post a message to Viva Engage where a portion needs to in bold text. How do I do this? As when I attempt to use

<b> Sample Text to be bolded </b> it does not work. I am using the Viva Engage Post Message Connector.

    Hi @MCubedMama,

     

    Try to use the <strong> tag instead of the <b>. I believe that used to work for bold text formatting in that specific action/connector when posting the message (as an broadcast announcement).

     

    Have a look at this thread as well about the same subject:

    Below is an example

    Hi @SchneidAIR,

     

    Did you read that somewhere in an update or the connector documentation?


    Just tried to reproduce this, but in my dev environment it still works with the V2 action as well.

     

    1. Flow setup
