Merge tags

Personalize the email body with column tags from your spreadsheet headers.

Merge tags let each recipient get a personalized body. A tag is the exact column header wrapped in double curly braces.

Syntax

If your sheet has a column named First Name, use:

{{First Name}}

Body example:

Hi {{First Name}},

Thanks for your work at {{Company}}.

Where merge tags work today

FieldMerged at send?
Email bodyYes — variables injected per row
Email subjectNo — subject is sent as stored in the template
Preview bodyYes — for the active row
Preview subjectNo — shows the raw template subject

Put personalization in the body until subject merge ships.

Inserting tags

In the editor toolbar, open Merge Tag. It lists headers from the active sheet. Empty state: No sheet columns found.

Inserted text uses double curly braces around the column name.

Rules of thumb

  • Headers are case-sensitive (Namename)
  • Empty cells insert as empty strings
  • You can reuse the same tag multiple times in the body
  • Recipient / CC / BCC are chosen under More options, not via merge tags
