To fix the formatting issue when adding email_body from Clay to Lemlist, you need to use HTML tags. Lemlist supports HTML in custom fields, but Clay's newlines are replaced with spaces. Here's how to address this: 1. Use
<br>or<p>tags for line breaks in your Clay email_body. 2. You can add these tags using a formula in Clay: • Create a new column with a formula. • Use Clay's AI feature to add HTML tags automatically. • Example formula: "Add html formatting '<p> ' before every paragraph and '</p> ' after every paragraph break from this column: /Description" After applying the formula, review the formatted text, ensure it's correct, and save it. Then, re-link this result in your Lemlist enrichment and re-export it. This should preserve your formatting when added to Lemlist.
