Text

Mode
Mode determines how embedded content appears.
Markdown
This option formats the content as markdown.
HTML
This setting renders the content as sanitized HTML. If you require more direct control over the output, you can set the disable_sanitize_html flag which enables you to directly enter HTML.
Code
This setting renders content inside a read-only code editor. Select an appropriate language to apply syntax highlighting to the embedded text.
