Customising email designs

Last updated:

You can use email designs to make individual adjustments to the appearance of your emails. These designs let you personalise your headers with your logo, adjust colours to match your corporate identity and add text to the footer. In the case of footer text, you can also set up different languages to support your international communications.

You use the Design Editor to make all of these customisations. Once you activate your design, it is used automatically for all mail that is sent by your forms.
