## HTML Emails and SysAid

Good Afternoon,

Thank you for reaching out regarding the issue with HTML emails in SysAid. Based on your description, it seems that HTML content in emails is not being displayed correctly in the body or description fields, but the full content is visible when opening the message. Let me provide some clarity and steps to address this issue:

---

### Current Support for HTML Emails in SysAid
1. **HTML Rendering in Description Field**:
- The description field in SysAid does not natively support rendering HTML or images. Instead, it displays the raw HTML code, which might explain the "content not available" message you're seeing.

2. **Alternative Field for HTML Content**:
- SysAid provides the **SR Source Email** field, which can render HTML content. This field is specifically designed for tickets raised from emails and can display the HTML content correctly.

### Steps to Enable HTML Rendering in SysAid

1. **Add the SR Source Email Field**:
- Navigate to **Settings > Service Desk Templates > Sub-types**.
- Select the relevant sub-type for your tickets.
- Edit the sub-type and move the **SR Source Email** field from the "Available Fields" section to the "Visible Fields" section.
- Save the changes.

2. **Verify Email Integration Settings**:
- Go to **Settings > Integration > Email**.
- Ensure that the email content type is set to **HTML** instead of plain text.
- Save and test the settings.

3. **Test with a Sample Email**:
- Send a test email with HTML content to your SysAid email address.
- Check if the HTML content is now displayed correctly in the **SR Source Email** field.

### Additional Recommendations

- **Check Email Encoding**:
- Ensure that the emails being sent to SysAid are encoded in **UTF-8**, as this encoding supports HTML content.

- **Update SysAid Version**:
- If you are using an older version of SysAid, consider upgrading to the latest version. Some HTML-related issues have been resolved in newer updates.

- **Review Logs for Errors**:
- Download the SysAid logs by navigating to **Personal Menu > About > Download Logs for Technical Support**.
- Check for any errors or warnings related to email processing.
