Welcome to the Template Engine Guide. This document will help you understand how to use our template engine for dynamic content generation. The template engine supports various conditional statements and loops to customize your templates effectively.

Where can this be used?

In Flow Messages:

In Campaigns/Templates:

Syntax

Currently, there are two options to make use of conditional rendering:

If/Else rendering
For loop / List rendering

If/Else rendering

The syntax for this looks like so:

#&#123;&#123;if contact.firstname contains 'dog' then 'Doglover' else 'Catlover'&#125;&#125;

So the structure would be: if <Variable> <Condition> then ‘<Text>’ else ‘<Text>‘

Different types of Conditions:

contains:
Example:#{{if contact.firstname contains 'dog' then 'Doglover' else 'Catlover'}}
isTrue:
Example:#{{if contact.dog isTrue then 'Doglover' else 'Catlover'}}
isEmpty: e.g.
Example: #{{if apiPayload.food isEmpty then 'No Food' else 'Still food'}}
equals:
Example: #{{if contact.pet equals 'dog' then 'DOG' else 'CAT'}}

For loop / List rendering

Here, the syntax look like so:

#&#123;&#123;for item in contact.properties.items&#125;&#125;

 <!-- Content to repeat for each item -->

#&#123;&#123;/each&#125;&#125;

Here, I could for example also combine the above if/else inside the For Loop:

#&#123;&#123;for item in contact.properties.items&#125;&#125;

  #&#123;&#123;if item contains 'dog' then 'Doglover' else 'Catlover'&#125;&#125; 

#&#123;&#123;/each&#125;&#125;

Accessing Variables

When setting Variables through the Dropdown in Campaigns:

You can see, how you can access which exact properties. In “normal Messages” of a Flow, you can see them, when you type in ”@” in the Textinput:

Examples

Here are some examples and their outputs so you can get a bit of a feeling:

Example 1

TEXT:

#&#123;&#123;for item in contact.properties.items&#125;&#125;

 #&#123;&#123;item.quantity&#125;&#125; x #&#123;&#123;item.price&#125;&#125;

#&#123;&#123;/each&#125;&#125;

WHEN:
contact.properties.items => [&#123;quantity:2, price: "50€"&#125;]

OUTPUT:

2 x 50€

Example 2

TEXT:

#&#123;&#123;if item contains 'dog' then 'Doglover' else 'Catlover'&#125;&#125;

WHEN:
item => "cats"

OUTPUT:

Catlover

Example 3

You can also use nested/multiple if/else:

#&#123;&#123;if contact.isActive isTrue then "Active" else #&#123;&#123;if contact.firstname contains 'cat' then 'CAT Lover' else 'Inactive'&#125;&#125;&#125;&#125;
