I'm trying to set a SIP URI within an html signature such as:


But when you pull the signature back out via the API, you get back:


Why is this modifying the valid HTML that I send in?

Hi Andre,

I managed to reproduce your issue but I also verified that the same limitation applies when setting the signature from the UI, so this doesn't look like an API bug.
The API sends the new signature in the correct format, but then is the Gmail backend that edits it.
Anyway, I asked the API engineers to give a look at this behavior, but I think this should belong to the official Gmail Help:

Claudio -- I understand this thread is a year old, however the Gmail UI seems to work fine now, however this is still an outstanding issue with the API.

Do you have any view on resolution there?
