With the help of variables you can design your WhatsApp templates in an overall, general way and still flexibly adjust them to fit an individual need or personalize the message for your customers. Below you will find an overview of all non-user-defined variables within Superchat.

Overview πŸš€

  • Variable: Name of the variable as it is displayed in Superchat when a template is created.

  • Value: Code that lies under the variable: ##{{ example }}

  • Text: Text that is automatically inserted into the module after it has been sent.
