## Conversation

We added a new field:

- `images_as_markdown` - Images will return formatted as markdown. If set to false images are returned as HTML.

## Signature

We added 2 new fields:

- `images_as_markdown` - Images will return formatted as markdown. If set to false images are returned as HTML.
- `parse_contacts` - By default, a contact object is returned, including phone number, email, job_title, and url. To disable this behavior, set it to false.

```json
"contact": {
    "job_title": [
        "Director of Engineering"
    ],
    "link": [
        {
            "description": "Albert Einstein",
            "url": "https://www.example.com/"
        },
        {
            "description": "+1.234.567.8901",
            "url": "tel:+12345678901"
        }
    ],
    "phone": [
        "123.456.8901"
    ]
}
```

## Dashboard Status

Now we surface failed events in the dashboard. Surfacing events will make it even easier to debug accounts.
