 ```
 labels:
-  traefik.http.routers.hey.rule: '''Host(`app.hey.com`)'''
+  traefik.http.routers.hey.rule: Host(\`app.hey.com\`)
 ```
 
-Note: The extra quotes are needed to ensure the rule is passed in correctly!
+Note: The escaped backticks are needed to ensure the rule is passed in correctly and not treated as command substitution by Bash!

 See https://doc.traefik.io/traefik/routing/routers/#rule for a full list of available routing rules.
