How to Use Personalized Variables

     919876543210	Rahul	12345	2024-12-15
     919998877665	Priya	67890	2024-12-16

2. Dynamic Message Personalization:

   • WhatsEra will automatically replace variables in the template with the corresponding values from your contact data.

   • Example Template: "Hello {{name}}, your order {{order_id}} is on its way!"

   • Message sent: "Hello Rahul, your order 12345 is on its way!"

Where Templates Can Be Used

1. Campaigns:

   • Use templates to send bulk or targeted messages to your audience.

   • Example: Promotional messages, reminders, or updates.

2. Automation:

   • Employ templates in automation workflows, such as autoresponders or welcome messages.

   • Example: "Welcome {{name}} to our platform! We're excited to have you on board."

3. Broadcasts:

   • Share pre-crafted messages quickly with a large audience.

   • Example: Announce new offers or events to all your contacts.

Things to Know Before Creating a Template

1. Keep It Short and Clear:

   • Templates should be concise, as WhatsApp messages are best when brief.

2. Avoid Variables in Unstructured Text:

   • Ensure variables are properly formatted using double curly braces {{ }}.

   • Example: Use {{name}} instead of "name".

3. Check for Errors:

   • Ensure all variables match the column headers in your contact list. A mismatch may result in missing or incorrect data in your messages.

4. Formatting Tips:

   • Use bold or italic text to emphasize key points in your message.

5. Attachments:

   • Templates in WhatsEra support media attachments, allowing you to include images, PDFs, or other files.
