Airtable long text to Instagram caption, but with formatting

Does anyone know how to take a few paragraphs of text (with spacing, line breaks) from Airtable and paste it as a formatted caption in Instagram.
I'm using the IG for business action.
In the Pabbly Airtable Trigger, the formatting looks fine.
But in the Instagram Action field, all the linebreaks are removed.
I tried adding \n but it doesn't work.

Hey @ffmedia

You can need to replace the \n with
since Instagram doesn't take \n to pass space in the content.

So you can use the "Text Formatter" action step in your workflow to replace it. Though we have made the desired changes in your worklfow, kindly try your workflow once and let us know if that works for you.
