Unable to render custom HTML response

[ajithmani]

Hi team,
I am trying to render custom HTML response for smart action. But i am getting some error.

This is my code snippet for the custom HTML response

render json: { html: <<EOF
        <strong class="c-form__label--read c-clr-1-2">Errors</strong>
        errors.map do |error|
          <p class="c-clr-1-4 l-mb">#{error}</p>
        end
        EOF
      }

I am getting the following error

Also i have tried to render simple HTML response

render json: { html: <<EOF
        <strong class="c-form__label--read c-clr-1-2">There is an Error</strong>
        EOF
      }

Could you please help me out?

Thanks

Can you try to set the second EOF at the start of the line ?

Hi @anon94532230,
It is working fine now.Thanks.

Now, i am not able to print the list of error messages stored in an array called ‘errors’

this is my code snippet

 render json: {  html: <<EOF
<strong class="c-form__label--read c-clr-1-2">Errors</strong>
errors.map do |error|
  return <p class="c-clr-1-4 l-mb">errors</p>
end 
EOF
        }

This is what i got

Also i have tried to incorporate embedded ruby format as below

        render json: {  html: <<EOF
<strong class="c-form__label--read c-clr-1-2">Errors</strong>
<% errors.map do |error| %>
  return <p class="c-clr-1-4 l-mb">error</p>
<% end %>
EOF

This is what i got

Is there a way to resolve this?
Or is there a way to incoporate erb templates in the custom html response?

thanks

Hello @ajithmani,

Coud you please try to:

1. create an ERB template matching you snippet
2. render it into a string variable
3. pass this variable as the html field of the response

I think there may be an issue with the way your template is handled.
You can also try to print the generated html before calling render to assert everything is well.
