Use tokens to specify recipients

You can either manually specify the email address of recipients:

Email

OR enter the email address as a token if the token exists in the source template.

Email token

The token may contain several comma-separated addresses:

{
  "email": "john.smith@contoso.com, adam.allman@contoso.com"
}

Use tokens in email subject and body

You can insert values from your data using tokens. Their list is available by clicking { }.

Let us assume your data has property address. In this case, you can include it using token {{address}}. The tokens work in the same way as in document templates including value formatters.

Additionally, you can use predefined tokens:

  • {{@date}} - full current date with time,

  • {{@number}} - the current document number.
