Overview
Email templates allow an Administrator to configure the information (e.g., object fields and properties) that appears on an email when the Messaging (email) workflow is triggered.
All object type fields and properties can be added to an email template, including custom and default email templates. The available fields and properties depend on the object triggering the email.
User Account Requirements
The user account you use to log into Resolver must have Administrator permission to configure email templates.
