Body of Email field

Hello,

Is it possible to add logic within the body of an email field?

 

For instance I am creating an email body with fields from my view, but some I only want to show if another field is ticked

Thanks

 

David

    If PPC is a yes/no field and you want check if it is set to yes, then you can do something like: 

    if PPC then {'Google Date Studio Link'} end

    For a yes/no field just by putting the name of the field tells Ninox to validate only when true or yes or 1.

    If PPC is a choice field then you will need to know the number of the choice you want selected. So if the selection is number 2 on the choice list then: 

    if PPC = 2 then {'Google Date Studio Link'} end

    If you want to use the text that is in your choice field: 

    if text(PPC) = "apple" then {'Google Date Studio Link'} end

    Hi Friend,

     

    Thanks for the above answer. Is this possible within the body of the email field? I assume it would just literally print out the words "if ppc then"

    When I tested it, it knew code from text. 
     

    What is your experience?

    I have the following in the body of my email 

    if {'Is PPC to be included in report'} then {'Google Data Studio Link'} end

    And the output in the actual email is 

    if Yes then https://datastudio.google.com/reporting/XXX end

    The field ''Is PPC to be included in report' is a Yes/No toggle field, I've tried the IF without the parentheses and just quotes etc but still no luck

      david You can see that everything inside the curly brackets is being evaluated, and everything outside is being treated literally.

      By way of an example, if I were running a holiday home business my email to the holiday maker prior to arrival might look like this 

      Dear {FirstName}
Thank you for booking {HolidayHome}. We are looking forward to seeing you on {StartDate}.
You will be allowed in from {if IsPets then "3pm" else "2pm" end}.
The entry code is {EntryCode}.
Yours etc...

      Regards

      John

    Looking back at my code Ninox changed it so you can try:

    {if 'Is PPC to be included in report' then ‘Google Data Studio Link' end}
