Line breaks in API values

[mkas]

Hey there,

I have a form which collects information from a user, and I want to concatenate that into a single variable (to go in the description field in Espo). Everything is working fine, except that I can't add line breaks into the string.

Here is my current code:

$message = "This is the message here";
$ipAddress = "123.123.123.132";

$desc = 'Message: ' . $message . ' | IP Address: ' . $ipAddress;

This is what I get (which is exactly what I expect from the above):

Message: This is the message here | IP Address: 123.123.123.132

This is what I want:

Message:
This is the message here.

IP Address:
123.123.123.123

Here is what I have tried:

$desc = 'Message: <br> ' . $message . ' <br><br>IP Address:<br>' . $ipAddress;

$desc = 'Message:/l/n ' . $message . ' /l/nIP Address:/l/n' . $ipAddress;

In each scenario, the characters I am entering in the string are just displaying in the description box, as in, it's not recognising it as HTML code, but as plain text.

Does anyone have any thoughts?

I believe line break is \n for EspoCRM not /n

Do a test in Formula I guess.
