hi @kivaniutenko thanks for reaching out.
Databricks alerts still support basic HTML in email templates, but HTML will render correctly only for email destinations and only with simple, allowed tags.
Quick things to try
- Make sure you are using Alerts v2 not legacy alerts.
- Check that the alert is still sending to an email address, not just a webhook or other integration where the content is handled as plain text.
- Start by temporarily setting the default template to confirm HTML is properly rendered even with this config.
- Then change it to custom and start with a very simple body like:
<p>Test <b>alert</b></p>and remove any complex HTML or CSS, then keep adding more. I tested with the static example you provided, which contains allowed tags without double encoding (< or >), and it worked as expected. - If even that simple HTML shows as text, I'd suggest opening a Databricks support ticket in the help center and sharing an example alert for further review.
I hope this helps, please let us know if it does.
