Formatting your show notes

Use the rich text editor in Spotify for Podcasters to get your episode descriptions (also known as show notes) just right.

On the Episode options page, you can use the rich text editor to add:

  • Bold text

  • Italicized text

  • Bulleted lists

  • Numbered lists

  • Links

Or, click Switch to HTML to write your own tags.
