I am using Google Sheets to send an update to my Discord server every time there is an update from a forum site.
However, when I scrape this link,
https://forum.mir4global.com/board/patchnote
using this XPath,
string((//*[@id="viewContent"])[1])
via use IMPORTXML
I get this result:

How can I get the same format like in the forum site?

The whole point of the XPath function, string()
, is to return the string-value (just the text without any markup) of the given node.
If you want the markup, remove the wrapping string()
function.
