Custom Field Tokens

Any non-sensitive custom field in your account is automatically available as a token in automation templates.

Custom Fields Naming Rule(s)

Custom field tokens follow a predictable pattern: a prefix that tells the system which record the field belongs to + the field name converted into a token-safe format.

Want this?

Use This Prefix

Insert a Contact Custom Field

contact_cf

Insert an Opportunity Custom Field

opportunity_cf

Insert an Appointment Custom Field

appointment_cf

Insert an Event Custom Field

event_cf

Insert a Product Custom Field

product_cf

The field name is then: lowercased, spaces replaced with underscores, special characters removed (punctuation, currency symbols, etc.)

{{prefix_name_of_custom_field}}

FAQs and Troubleshooting

Can I use the same token multiple times in one Email or Text Template

Yes! Type it as many times as you need--each occurence is replaced independently.

I typed a token and I see a red warning, what does this mean?

This means the token entered is invalid. To correct, first check for typos (i.e. {{contact_firstname}} is invalid but {{contact_first_name}} is. If the token name looks right, check whether you've selected the right trigger (e.g. Opportunity tokens only appear after you've set up an Opportunity Trigger).

What happens if a token's value is blank?

If there is no value present, it will simply skip. For example, if a contact has no middle name:

Hi {{contact_first_name}} ((contact_middle_name}} {{contact_last_name}} will render Hi Sarah Chen.

What if I switch triggers after writing my automation action template?

Any tokens in your template that are not valid for the new trigger will get flagged with a red warning. You can either edit them out or change the trigger back.

Why isn't a specific field available as a token?

There are two reasons why a field may not be available as a token.

  1. The field is marked sensitive (e.g. birthdate, SSN, or a custom field marked as sensitive). Fields marked as sensitive are never exposed as tokens.

  2. The trigger does not include that record type. For example, if your trigger is Contact Created" opportunity fields will not be available because no opportunity exists in the trigger context.
