Email Placeholders


Overview

Email templates can be used for standardized emails that can be sent manually or automatically based on predetermined event triggers. When creating an email template, you have the option to add email placeholders. This helpful feature saves you time by inserting information for you. Click on the placeholder you want to add and the information attached to that placeholder will be added to your email.
