Body.getHtml() does not return all HTML classes

[mkm17]

Your Environment

• Platform [PC desktop, Mac, iOS, Office on the web]: Office on the web
• Host [Excel, Word, PowerPoint, etc.]: Word
• Office version number: 16.0.15810.41017
• Operating System: Windows 11
• Browser (if using Office on the web): Chrome

Expected behavior

Body.getHtml() should return data with classes used in web like: SpellingErrorV2Themed.

Current behavior

The function returns HTML data without all classes shown on the editor

Steps to reproduce

1. Write text with a spelling error
2. Inspect the editor with the browser inspector (get source 1)
3. Invoke the Body.getHtml() function and get source 2)
4. Compare source 1 and source 2

Context

Some time ago, I have created a test extension for the MS Word application that counts a number of incorrect words provided in the editor. Previously, an HTML class for spelling errors was returned by using the getHtml function. Two weeks ago, I noticed that the class is not returned by the function anymore.

I can see in the documentation that the function returns the formatting will be close, but not exact, so the effect presented nowadays is correct. Still, I am wondering if there is any possibility to get a similar HTML presented in the editor as it was done before.

Thank you in advance.

Dear @RuizhiSunMS, is there any update on the issue?

[RuizhiSunMS]

@mkm17 sorry for so late update. After having discussion with @xiruatms, I can share that, usually we would add one or several specific classes into the function's supported class list. And if the user does have such requirement, please submit your request in this channel, stackoverflow channel or https://techcommunity.microsoft.com/t5/microsoft-365-developer-platform/idb-p/Microsoft365DeveloperPlatform and give details of the class you want. Our pms and engs would go through those channels and generate work items.
If you want to have a new request, I'd like to close this issue on Feb 18th. Thx.
