Email Subject as a variable with templates

Email API/SMTP

It would be great if you could add the functionality to allow the email subject to be a variable when using templates for sending.

    Hi Mariano.

    We hope you’re doing great.

    Once again, we would like to thank you for the suggestion. We also would like to let you know that email templates already support variables in the subject line using Handlebars syntax (e.g. {{first_name}}, {{company}}). This works across all sending methods:

    • Transactional and Bulk streams: pass variables via template_variables in the API request alongside template_uuid

    • Email Campaigns: contact fields (including custom ones) are automatically interpolated in the subject

    • Automations: same Handlebars syntax works in the subject field

    Were you looking for something different from what’s described above? If so, could you share more details about your use case, for example, which sending method you’re using and what you were trying to achieve?

    That would help us understand if there’s a gap we need to address.
