Hello @swvajanyatek , thank you for your question. The markdown looks correct and it looks like the backend issue that the hyperlink inside a table cell is not rendered correctly. I'd suggest filing a ticket via https://my.slack.com/help/requests/new, our support team will contact the canvas team and help you address the issue

Can report that this does not only pertain to the Python SDK. The native Web API has the same issue

I'm seeing the same bug on an earlier hosted version of JIRA.

Additional information for anyone else who has run into this issue:

Quoting, using alternative formats, using the <thing|http://something> doesn't work, I thought at first it was because it had a | in the original format, tried escaping that, no good.

If you single quote it, the "code" tags are visible, (ugly). however it DOES make a hyperlink out of "hello there".
Hello there

The "poor" hack that i have as a work around is simply to NOT use tables, and do some really poor ascii art, use the double lined "things" because slack doesn't seem to interpret them as any kind of markdown.

If anyone figures a work around, that'd great. I'm not holding my breath slack fix this.
