Use shared assets in email templates

Each shared asset you create has a Reference String which is used in an email template to include the shared asset. You can include multiple shared assets in an email template.

Visual editor [shared_asset]bsft_demo_text[/shared_asset]
Subject line and Preheader (for both HTML and Visual editors) <shared_asset>bsft_demo_text</shared_asset>

Use in subject line or preheader text

You can include the reference string of a shared asset in the subject line or preheader text of an email template.
