Question
Where is it possible to use placeholders?
Answer
Placeholders are containers that hold dynamically generated ticket and user data. They help make automatic replies more personalized by including specific ticket and user details. The data comes from the ticket where the placeholder is applied.
There is a wide range of areas where placeholders can be implemented. Some examples include:
- Email notifications
- Triggers
- Automations
- Macros
- Dynamic content
- User and organization fields
- Help center
Note: Triggers have the ability to suppress placeholders. Also, placeholders won't work within code blocks. For more information, see this article: Using placeholders.
