Automation Merge Tags

Automation text settings can use merge tags that are replaced during automation execution.

Built-in merge tags

  • {submission_id}
  • {form_id}
  • {form_title}
  • {site_name}
  • {site_url}
  • {field:FIELD_ID}

Example

Hello,

A new submission was received from {form_title}.
Email: {field:email}

Merge tags are resolved from the automation context. If an action uses context_patch to modify field values, later actions can use the updated context.
