Does (or will) ServiceNow support MarkDown for knowledge base articles?

Thanks,

Jerry

As far as I'm aware there are no plans to implement Markdown support in ServiceNow in the near future

One Workaround would be to write your markdown and convert it to HTML with e.g. showdown (https://github.com/showdownjs/showdown) then use the HTML for the KB Article.

I really wish markdown was supported. When I edit a KB of any complexity, it's almost guaranteed that the formatting will eventually get mangled. I'd rather build the formatting programmatically with markdown syntax...
