Hi Camilla,

As per my understanding, you should first iterate over all related membership of contact person, conditional statement will be nested in each loop.

e.g: I created a custom entity "Membership" and 3 demo records and changed my publisher prefix to cgi as yours.

Dynamic expression in marketing email:

As doc stated, operator(eq) is not required for boolean field.

So the conditional statement will be: {{#if this.cgi_roadassistance }}, it is equivalent to true,

and the whole expression is:

Hi {{contact.firstname}}, {{#each contact.cgi_membership_contact_new_contact}} {{#if this.cgi_roadassistance }} {{this.cgi_name}}, Road assitance is available. {{else}} {{this.cgi_name}}, Road assitance is not available. {{/if}} {{/each}}

Preview result:

To apply it to your requirement, you might need to edit HTML code directly to add image element.(e.g: <img src="xxxx" width="100" height="100">)

Just add the element inside {{#if}}{{/if}} body.

Regards,

Clofly

Hi Camilla,

I just show fields of related entity(roadassistance) with demo purpose.

You could remove field expression from my demo code to send email with 2 different contents likes below:

{{#each contact.cgi_membership_contact_new_contact}}

{{#if this.cgi_roadassistance }}

content A

{{else}}

content B

{{/if}}

{{/each}}

Firstly set text content by editor:

Then replace text with custom HTML elements.

You could format HTML source code by website below:

Hi Clofly,

Thanks for your reply.

Can I also use this expression to send different modules in the email?

So the emails shows different type of modules and text?

Hi Camilla,

What the meaning of "modules"?

As per my understanding, you could use this expression to show two different blocks,

because it is based on two options field.

You could display other text or modules by changing to another two options field of related entity.

Hi again.

I am getting an error when I am trying to set up this expression.

"Dynamic content contains a for-each loop that uses a single-value relationship as a multi-value relationship:

Hi Camilla,

Could you confirm that relationship between Contact and Membership is 1:N?

Because the error indicates that we applied "for each" loop to a N:1 relationship.(and I reproduced your error in my environment.)

Please check whether Membership is actually a lookup field of Contact entity,

if yes, we just need to use expression below without foreach because its N:1 relationship(Contact <-> Membership):

{{#if contact.contact_cgi_membership_cgi_currentmembershipid.cgi_roadassistance }}

Content A

{{else}}

Content B

{{/if}}

Clofly

It is based on value of cgi_roadassistance field.

Could you share your dynamic expression?

{{#if contact.xxx}} expression is equal to true.

e.g: If cgi_roadassistance of related membership is yes, then your expression would be

{{#if contact.contact_cgi_membership_cgi_currentmembershipid.cgi_roadassistance }}

Veihjelp 1

{{else}}

Veihjelp 2

{{/if}}
