Linebreaks lost when using piece "HTTP (Send HTTP request)" to GET a markdown file from git

[juliuspopp]

hello,
I want to write posts in markdown, commit them in git, and then have Activepieces publish it to Ghost. On the way, linebreaks are lost.

I have a markdown file in a git repository, like this:
https://v12.next.forgejo.org/juliuspopp/testrepo/raw/branch/main/Test/test2.md

I use the “HTTP (Send HTTP request)” piece

• GET method
• URL of the raw file in git
• body type: none
• Headers: I later want to use it on a private repo, it worked with adding authorization to the header and placing a token there
• Query params: none:

As response I get this body:

“beginn inhalt 2 mittelteil inhalt 2 mit [[test1]] Link Ende Inhalt 2”

No linebreaks.
Can I improve my usage of the piece?
Or is this a bug?
thanks in advance!

You need to use POST method on http request to ghost admin api and you needs your API Key.

There’s another “piece” for posting to Ghost.

I use the HTML piece to GET the data, and when I parse what I received to the Ghost piece there are - as already expected from the Activepieces data - no line breaks.

Are you suggesting that I should create Ghost posts via HTTP request instead?

I want

beginn inhalt 2

mittelteil inhalt 2
mit [[test1]] Link

Ende Inhalt 2

I get

{
  "status": 200,
  "headers": {
    "access-control-expose-headers": "Content-Disposition",
    "alt-svc": "h3=\":443\"; ma=2592000,h3=\":443\"; ma=2592000",

}

I now see there are linebreaks.
I use markdown to html piece, and then use that as input for the Ghost piece. now it (or a proof of concept of what I want) works.
