TitleHow do I add a Merge Field to my Email Template?
Description

  1. From your Email Template, select the Add Merge Field link.

  2. Select the Object and Field and then Add to your Subject Line or Text Content.

 
Notes:

  • Merge Fields have a limit of 250 characters on any given merge field.

  • Merge Fields can NOT contain a full URL.

  • You can NOT merge in Rich Text fields that contain HTML. 

  • If your institution is using the New Email Submitter, you can NOT use the following field as a merge field:

{!Contact.OwnerFullName}

  1. Preview your Email Template to ensure the correct information is being displayed.

  2. Save your changes.

    Notes: 

    • All condition set filter criteria should be unique before saving. 

    • Do NOT use {!Contact.MailingAddress} as a merge field. This is a composite field within Salesforce that contains several other  fields within it. Instead, use the individual mailing fields, such as:

    {!Contact.MailingStreet} {!Contact.MailingCity}, {!Contact.MailingState} {!Contact.MailingPostalCode} {!Contact.MailingCountry}
