The manifest schema for long description does not call out whether it can support HTML or markdown links. Copilot thinks it is not supported by cannot provide a reference. There's a stack overflow question where it seems like someone got markdown links here to work.
But I'm seeing that this breaks the Teams admin UI in admin.teams.microsoft.com when it displays the Full description.
Are links in a full description supported? Is there any documentation around this?
Or is this a bug with Teams admin?

Thanks for raising your issue. We will check this at our end and will update you accordingly.
We tried to repro this issue, for example in the manifest in description section if we want to add hyperlink, it is showing correctly in Teams, but in Admin center that markdown no longer works.
In MS Teams:
In Teams admin center:
There is a bug raised for this issue. We will update this thread once we hear anything from engineering team. Thanks!
Update:
The markdown support (New Experience) has been added for 3P apps, but for Custom apps markdown support is not possible with the current implementation.
New experience via Feature.UI.Mgmt.Teams.AppDetails.Experiment.Overview:
Thanks so much for looking into it. So, I guess if we use markdown links like below, then it will display ok to customers in Teams when searching for apps, but just not to the admin on that particular page in admin.teams.microsoft.com, so I suppose we should go ahead and use markdown links anyway despite that bug in teams admin, especially since other apps are likely using this as well currently.
Thanks!
