HTML Encode User Input for Safe Rendering
π§© Problem
User input with tags breaks emails or embeds inside automation outputs. When malformed or unstructured data hits routers, filters, or API connectors, entire automations halt or silently drop records. Teams end up retrying runs, hand-editing payloads, and explaining delays to customers.
π‘ Why This Happens
Forms capture raw HTML characters that need escaping. Most automation platforms assume well-formed payloads and do minimal validation. AI models, third-party APIs, and changing vendor schemas drift over time, mixing encodings, formats, and unexpected fields that downstream steps cannot tolerate.
