Hello!
We are developing a recipe, that is supposed to send a message when an item’s status changes. We want to allow a user to customize a message by using the content of the board item’s fields (for example, “Name”):
Something in the vein of template variables: “Hello, {{first_name}}, how are you?”
Is that possible? How should the recipe be configured to allow selecting of item fields in the text input of the recipe?
Thanks!
There are actually two fields called message! Confusing!
There is Message, and there is message. The Message with a capital lets you pick the fields from an item to use.
That said, the way it works, it sends the raw text with the field placeholders (and in a format like {pulse.name} or {board.name}, pulse being an item ) to you and you have to perform the substitutions in your code. It does not perform the substitutions for you! Also annoying at times, but other times its not since it does make the Message field more useful - it can be used to gather a list of columns for example.
