Snippets and Framemaker import/linked

Participant ,

Hello! I work with Framemaker 2022 and import and link data to Robohelp2022. In Robohelp, I can insert snippets. Example for snippet TEST1-Video1 appears in HTML <div data-conref=“../../snippets/TEST1-Video1.hts”> </div>
This is perfect for certain insertions in terms of organization and flexibility. But there is a catch.
In order to have all source data consistently in Framemaker, I would like to insert the HTML code (e.g., <div data-conref="../../snippets/TEST1-Video1.hts"> </div> ) into Framemaker at a defined text location and, after importing into Robohelp, reformat the HTML data using a script so that the snippets are activated in Robohelp.
I can't find an option to enter HTML code in a protected manner. e.g. Markers are lost during import.
Does anyone have a solution for me?

I found a solution. The simplest one we could have imagined. I write the HTML text in a special paragraph 'snippet' (so that it can be hidden for PDF output) and then, after importing it into Robohelp, I replace the text line in the HTML file with the code <div...>.
Sorry, I was a little too quick with my request.

Glad you found a solution, but why are you doing this in the first place? Wouldn't you just use text insets in the FM content and just import it into a RH project for output generation?
