Fields of Markdown

text: String

The text for the block.

This field accepts any of the standard text formatting markup

verbatim: Option<bool>

When set to false (as is default) URLs will be auto-converted into links, conversation names will be link-ified, and certain mentions will be automatically parsed.

Using a value of true will skip any preprocessing of this nature, although you can still include manual parsing strings.

Plain

Fields of Plain

text: String

The text for the block

emoji: Option<bool>

Indicates whether emojis in a text field should be escaped into the colon emoji format
