Adding HTML structure through Document based authoring (Google Docs)

Hi,

I'm building a website using Edge Delivery Services via document-based Authoring (Google Docs). Is there a possibility of adding custom HTML(span tag) in Google Docs (ref image below)?

Hi @sahildh1 
It is not possible to add span tags like in your example.

you can try creating a block and where you can use p tag and style like span or do some javascript manipulation.

 

or you can explore third party google docs plugin which allows insertion of span

@sahildh1 html tags in EDS end html depend on element you choose for formatting. Generally span tags comes with styling your content.

    @shashi_mulugu  the query is about how can we add the HTML tag (eg. Span tag) from the Google Doc itself rather than adding the tag using JavaScript from the code base?
