Manage email templates

You can disable or enable email templates, change the subjects of email notifications, and edit the HTML and Twig code that forms the email body.

Making substantial changes to predefined email templates requires a good understanding of HTML and Twig. If you're not familiar with these instruments, it's recommended to make only minor edits, such as changing the text color or company name.

Modify a selected email template as follows:

  1. On the Email template page, click the Edit button located in the template row.The Edit email template page opens.

  1. To disable the email template, select No in the Enabled dropdown. If the template is disabled, notifications about the related event aren’t sent to clients.

To enable the email template, select Yes in the Enabled dropdown.

  1. To change the email subject, update the text displayed in the Subject field. The email subject typically includes your company name followed by the specific subject of the email notification.

{{ keyvalue('mail_subject_company') }} | Master Account Created

The company name is stored in a key-value pair. In this case, the key “mail_subject_company” is assigned a string containing your company name. During email rendering, the key is replaced with your company name. For a list of key-value pairs supported for email templates and details on how to assign values to keys refer to Set key-value pairs below.

  1. In the Email Template field, you can view the email body coded in HTML and Twig. The Preview field displays how the code will be rendered in emails.

The preview may not show all possible template variants because a template may include variables that are substituted with actual values during email rendering. For example, the following Twig code substitutes a client's name into an email notification:

{% if entity.info.givenName != "" %}
    Dear {{ entity.info.givenName }},

{% else %}
    Dear client!

{% endif %}

If the name is specified in a client profile, it is substituted into the email notification; otherwise, “Dear client!” is used instead of the client’s name.

In addition to substitutional variables, the email body may contain keys that are replaced with values that are stored in the key-value storage (for details, refer to Set key-value pairs below).

  1. Click Save to apply the changes made to the email template.

Set key-value pairs

Email templates for client notifications contain keys that are replaced with the values assigned to them. These key-value pairs are stored in the key-value storage. You can modify the values assigned to keys as follows:

  1. Go to System > Key storage > Key storage values.

The following are some keys commonly used in email notifications. You can change the values assigned to these keys.

  • mail_subject_company – the name of your company displayed in the subjects of email notifications

  • mail_company_name – the name of your company displayed in the text of email notifications

  • mail_support_email – the email address of the Support team in the text of email notifications

  • mail_logo_url – the URL of an image that is included as a company logo in email notifications

  • mail_logo_height – the logo height, in pixels

  • mail_logo_width – the logo width, in pixels

  • mail_text_color – the text color used in email notifications

  • mail_content_bg – the background color applied to content blocks in email notifications

  • mail_body_bg – the background color applied to email notifications

  1. Select a key and click the Edit button located in the key row.

  2. In the Value field, enter a new value that you want to assign to the selected key.

  1. Click Save to apply the changes.
