Description

the following will help identify how rendering the HTML view is done in SFMC Email Studio / content builder by actually rendering an email like it is shown in the system - only without the additional "edit me" overlays that pop up there

const uri = '/asset/v1/content/assets/4936/views/html';
const response = await this.client.rest.get(uri);

4936 in this example is the asset id (not the legacy id)

Research direction

Start by tracing how the extension currently handles SFMC asset content and the REST request to /asset/v1/content/assets/{assetId}/views/html. Use asset 4936 as the example and compare the returned rendering with Email Studio/content builder. Done means an asset preview matches the system's rendered HTML without the editing overlays.
