Helloo Alteryx Community,

 

Is it possible to use a [Field] in the body of an email? I.e.:

----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Dear [Field]

 

Attached you will find the weekly report titled X

 

Best regards,

Y

----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

would become:

----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Dear Henri,

 

Attached you will find the weekly report titled X

 

Best regards,

Y

Yes it is, but in order to do this you should in fact use the 'Report Text' tool prior to the email tool.

 

Within this you can generate your email text, including any fields who's contains would change dynamically.

 

In the email tool you would then select the 'Use field' option in the body and select the field generated by the report text.
