Describe the Scenario
When I use
https://example/api/books/13to update the book information, I pass both description and description_html, but the page does not render them as hyperlinks.Just like this, this is (Search) , a content hyperlink that I manually created through the web page.

What is the correct way to send a request structure with a hyperlink?

Hi @AndreasByrsting,
Have you tried only setting the
description_html(and not send the thedescriptionfield). I think the description field is used primarily if provided (with the HTML auto generated from that) otherwise thedescription_htmlis used with thedescriptiongenerated from the HTML.@AndreasByrsting commented on GitHub (Jul 10, 2025):
Wow, I didn't try that operation. I just tried passing description_html, and it worked perfectly. Thank you for your help; I feel a bit foolish
