Email templates

Reusable, sanitised HTML emails with variables, used by Send Email nodes and task notifications.

An email template has a name, a subject, an HTML body and an optional plain-text body (generated from the HTML when omitted). Subject and bodies accept the same expressions as workflow settings. HTML is sanitised before it is stored and rendered.

bash

usertasks email-templates create --set name="Invoice approved" \
  --set subject="Invoice {{invoice_number}} approved" --set html_body=@approved.html
usertasks email-templates preview <id> --set variables:='{"invoice_number":"INV-1042"}'

Where templates are used

Send Email nodes: pick a template with email_template_id; recipients, sender and reply-to stay on the node.
User Task notifications: notification_template_id on the User Task node, or the workspace default (is_default).

Sending needs an email provider: set RESEND_API_KEY and EMAIL_FROM when self-hosting.
