Asterisks in Self Service Policy Description

[skelllter]

Is there a way to include text in a self service policy description that does not bold or italicize? I'm trying to include a serial number that has asterisks in a few places, and it is removing them and truncating the asterisks thinking I'm trying to use HTML Markdown https://docs.jamf.com/technical-articles/Using_Markdown_to_Format_Text.html - is there anyway to prevent that? (e.g. "123*456*789" becomes "123456789")

@skelllter Put a \ before the * to prevent it from being interpreted as the start of a bold section of text.

Thank you @sdagley - that did it!
