Templates

Chat templates support two content types:

• Markdown - Simple markdown formatting
• JSON - Rich message format (e.g., Slack Block Kit)

Use Liquid templating for dynamic content:

New order from {{ actor.first_name }}: #{{ data.order_id }}

Or use JSON for rich formatting:

{
  "blocks": [
    {
      "type": "section",
      "text": {
        "type": "mrkdwn",
        "text": "*Order #{{ data.order_id }}*\nCustomer: {{ actor.first_name }}"
      }
    }
  ]
}

Available variable contexts:

• recipient.* - Recipient user data
• actor.* - User who triggered the notification
• data.* - Custom payload passed when triggering the notiflow
