Posted on by Microsoft Employee

Hi there,

Out of the box we noticed that only those tables (entities) are available when adding dynamic test to a email template, is possible to reach other tables or entities as our own custom or any other than those below tables (entities)

    RE: Email Templates - Dynamic Content - Record Types

    Hi,

    After my testing, I could achieve this feature. You can refer to the steps I provided to test again:

    1. Create a "Global" email template.

    2. Create an email in a custom entity and insert this template

    Hi Yuri,

    Many thanks for your reply, tried both approaches I am more interested to have the second approach working to be honest, could open much more flexibility and choices when using Dynamic Content for displaying data on Emails

    Once the email template has been edited and saved the Dynamic Content sintax "EntityLogicalName:FieldLogicalName" is accepted and updated but I cannot get the Dynamic Content to be displayed once the email template has been saved and launched, basically shows blank

    Any thoughts?

    Hi,

    Unfortunately, you can't select a custom entity on “Record Type”, because the Record Type of the template is related to the “Category” which is selected when the template is created.

    However, you can try the following two methods to select dynamic contents in custom entities.

    The first method is listed below

    1. Create a custom entity "Class" and then define a one-to-many relationship with "Contact".

    2. Find “Class” in “Field Name”.

    3. Test the template.

    In addition to the above method, you can also try the method(manually entering expressions that insert dynamic content) in the following link.
