How to substitute \n or carriage returns

[netwire88]

Hi, We have a string that contains \n. How do we submit it to the mail send API as a variable for dynamic template?

I tried:

        content.gsub!("\n", "<br/>")
        personalization.add_dynamic_template_data(
          {
            'subject' => subject,
            'content' => content
          }
        )

but the text shows up as <br/> and not escaped.

I chatted with SendGrid support and they referred me to post here.

I couldn't find an answer here but found it on Stackoverflow. Essentially, I need to

1. replace \n with <br>
2. Use {{{content}}} instead of {{content}} in the dynamic template
