Text Formatting

Glue formatting uses Markdown-style syntax.

Basic Text

Style	How to write
Bold	**bold text**
Italic	*italic text*
Code	`code`

Structured Content

Structure	Syntax
Bulleted lists	- item or * item
Numbered lists	1. item
Headings	# Heading level 1 (h1), ## Heading level 2 (h2) , ### Heading level 3 (h3)
Divider (horizontal line break)	---
Blockquote	> your text here

Tip: Always include a space after heading markers (e.g., ## Heading text).

Note: There is currently not support for sending formatted tables in a message. Only Glue AI can send a table.

Block & Inline Code

For sharing code snippets, use triple backticks:

```console.log("Hello world")```

will appear as

console.log("Hello world")

Pasting formatted text from another app will carry the formatting over to Glue!
