Literals in email templates

Email templates use literals to display dynamic information on email templates. The following are the template literals that are accessible for all email templates in Asgardeo.

General literals

The following literals about the user are accessible for all email templates.

Literal Description
{{ user-name }} Name of the user account.
{{ user.claim.givenname }} Given name of the user.
{{ userstore-domain }} Name of the user store.
{{ organization-name }} Name of the organization. Insert this placeholder where you want to display the organization's name in a human readable format.
{{ tenant-domain }} Domain name specific to the organization. For organization (root), this is a human-readable domain name. For organizations, a UUID is used to uniquely identify them. Utilize this placeholder within URL paths to denote the tenant.

Organizations (root) created before October 2022 will utilize \{\{ tenant-domain \}\} as the placeholder to represent the organization name.
