      Mail Merge Tags

      Available Merge tags

      Mail merge tags allow you to personalize your email for each recipient. When your message is sent, emails from Rosterfy will merge your email with data from the user (like their first name), so that each user receives a personalized email just for them. 

      Within Rosterfy, you can also use mail merge tags to generate information such as event and shift details or confirmation and withdrawal links, which allows users to confirm shifts via email which updates their status on a roster. 

      See below for the full list of mail merge tags available on Rosterfy:
