Write email templates

Updated October 31, 2026 · Applies to Platform ONE 1.34

Email templates are ready-made wording for the emails your staff write to a contact from a record. The writer picks a template, the fields are filled in, and they can still change the text before sending.

Prerequisites

  • The Admin or Designer role.
  • Email sync, which needs the Professional edition.

Add a template

  1. In the menu, under Extend, select Studio, and then select Open on Email templates.

  2. Under Add a template, enter a Name, a Subject and the Text. You can use these fields in the subject and text:

    Field Replaced with
    {contact.firstName} The contact's first name.
    {contact.name} The contact's full name.
    {contact.company} The contact's company.
    {me.name} The name of the person writing.
  3. Select Add template.

A change to a template applies at once: templates don't go through review and publishing. Emails are sent as plain text.

Change or remove a template

  • To change one, select Change, make your changes, and then select Save template.
  • To remove one, select Remove.
