Cannot Paste HTML into Long Answer User Input

The pickaxe I am building analyzes html code blocks. The problem is that whenever I copy and paste HTML into a LongAnswer block in Pickaxes, it wipes out the HTML and leaves me only with the inner text. That makes it impossible to analyze the html.

Is there some kind of a workaround for this?

Would you mind posting a screenshot or sending the URL of your Pickaxe? I was not able to replicate this issue on my end. When I pasted HTML into both the chatbot interface and the smart form interface it came through (see screenshots). But maybe you’re referring to something more specific. I believe HTML might not render correctly in the builder test area, but it will render correctly elsewhere.

Thanks for the reply. I tested this some more and it appears the problem only occurs in the testing mode while building a pickaxe. Once it is built and ready to deploy, the HTML pastes in as it should.
Thanks again.

Great! The testing zone in the builder doesn’t always render as richly as other places (embeds, studios, etc.) because there is less space. We are working on getting it to perfectly match the rest of the site, but sometimes you will notice differences in how the rendering of outputs look there.
