I don't believe Markdown links are supported. You can create a link by higlighting some text and pressing ⌘ and K on Mac or Ctrl and K on Windows. Also, for the full list of supported keyboard shortcuts and markdown options, press ⌘ and / on Mac or Ctrl and / on Windows.

Oof, well that's too bad.
Yeah, that really is too bad. It's a wonderful feature, but I'm stuck without links.
Hi @jjt
You can actually do it by pasting the link on the highlighted word. So let's say you highlight "this page" and CTRL + V to paste the link on it. It will return the outcome you expect.
Let me know if it helps.

Hi @Ed,
Yup, that's what I have to resort to. But I'd rather be able to use my muscle memory from every other Markdown experience where I can type `[blah blah blah blah...](` cmd+v `)` and get a link. I find typing `blah` shift+alt+arrow+arrow+arrow+... cmd+v more work and it interrupts my workflow more.
