Tasks sent to Google Tasks don't show links to Capacities correctly

I have just tried to send tasks from Capacities to Google Tasks, but unlike e.g. with Ticktick, the three links back to Capacities in the Google Task description are not turned into links. The first link to the Web version is shown as full link (not shortened) and clickable, but the two other links to the Desktop and the Mobile version are just plain text. Can this be fixed or is it a problem on the side of Google Tasks?

Thanks for reporting this, Michael. Based on current behavior, this is likely a limitation on the Google Tasks side in how it parses and renders links in task descriptions, not something Capacities can fully control. We’ll review if there’s any formatting change we can make to improve link detection, but full parity with other task managers may not be possible. For reference, here’s the current docs on task actions and Google Tasks: https://docs.capacities.io/reference/task-actions#google-tasks.
