The confirmation modal for my queries is having strange behavior. It now displays a new title, " Confirmation to run query" that I had not seen before. It also does not show my confirmation message using Markdown syntax.
Found the likely change that's leading to it, following up with the owning team once they're online US west here soon. Will post back once we're sending out a fix!
To give an update here, we have a fix ready to go but are also currently working through some other bigger impact issues and need to explore the best path forward in terms of rolling these out. Worst case we should have this out by end of day tomorrow, but I'll confirm as we figure these out. In the meantime, would just remove any markdown in the confirmations for now!
Thanks! It looks like Markdown syntax is rendering correctly now, but it still shows the new "Confirmation to run query" header that was not previously there. Is it possible to remove or edit this?
Hey @dguzzo - Oh weird! Can you DM me a JSON export of the app you're seeing that with? Seems like some kind of content that we didn't take into account
I'm working through this with Justin directly, but for anyone who has HTML in a confirmation dialog, it's an anchor tag (<a>) that'll crash the page. As simple as this:
Hoping for a swift resolution so I don't have to rip out a bunch of links and release late on a Friday afternoon
Hey folks - Working with the team now, as @dguzzo mentioned it looks like the crash is only with anchor tags, and is due to assumptions around the markdown syntax. Looks like the assumed [Display Text](URL) syntax does render as expected in case a quick convert helps unblock before the weekend!
Thanks @jmann ! For your support here and directly.
One thing to note, and one reason why I don't always use Markdown's links, is that they don't support the target='_blank' attribute; one has to use full HTML for that, otherwise a link will open atop your current Retool app. Sometimes okay, sometimes not desirable.
But otherwise that is a great workaround and I favor using Markdown in Retool whenever/wherever I can get away with it!
Of course, thanks for helping us figure this out! And that's a great point about the target attribute, I'll work with the team on how we can either support what it did before, or how else we can address that. I don't know if we'll get to this before the weekend, but happy to loop back next week on where we're at. Apologies for us breaking this, I just don't think anyone really knew markdown was supported/used in this part of the product!
Hey folks - Definitely something we want to add in and I'm making sure it's on the radar, but don't yet have a set timeline on it. We also moved this behind a feature flag for now so we can iron some of these issues out without affecting existing modals!
