Templates

Templates is a standard configuration interface for adding, editing, and removing notification templates. Templates in the notification engine detail the information relayed when a notification is triggered. For example, for an Email Notification, it is the 'From', 'Subject', and 'Message Body' fields. Variables can be used in the notification templates but is dependent upon the module-specific component leveraging the template. Additional documentation is available in those articles.

Refer to the Standard Configuration Interface guide for details on interacting with the grid and form.

This user interface calls REST methods from api/notification/templates.

To open this interface, from the main navigation menu, select Configuration, then Notifications, and then Templates.
