How to use HTML tags in Groovy

I am trying to include HTML tags in groovy code, My requirement is to add something like -- thanks and regards (in one line), in next line a image, followed by name (in new line), kindly let me know how I can achieve this.

I have tried below and it didn't worked.

body: """
Approval is required. Please provide acceptance \n
Visit the below link to approval/decline \n\n
Note This is system generated email
""" + ''' </p><p Regards,</p>src="<image path>" alt="yes"><br><br><b><span
 Cloud></b></span><br>myname<br></p>''', mimeType: 'text/html'

Are you aware of the Groovy MarkupBuilder (https://docs.groovy-lang.org/latest/html/api/groovy/xml/MarkupBuilder.html)?

I would solve your question like:

def writer = new StringWriter()
def markup = new groovy.xml.MarkupBuilder(writer)

markup.html {
    head {
        title('Approval')
    }
    body {
        mkp.yieldUnescaped('Approval is required. Please provide acceptance<br/>Visit the below link to approval/decline<br/><br/>Note This is system generated email')
        p ('Regards,')
        img(alt: 'your alt text', src: 'your image url')
        p ('YamunaS')
    }
}

writer.toString()

Which would result in:

<html>
  <head>
    <title>Approval</title>
  </head>
  <body>Approval is required. Please provide acceptance<br/>Visit the below link to approval/decline<br/><br/>Note This is system generated email
    <p>Regards,</p>
    <img alt='your alt text' src='your image url' />
    <p>YamunaS</p>
  </body>
</html>

And then rendered:

If you want to put the first sentences/lines into a paragraph or div container as well, just follow above way. A div-container would open a new closure again. For a full example including some stylesheets you can also have a look in one of my examples. It generates html dynamically and uses it in context of Springboot (which is probably too much for you now)
