Blueshift’s Template Assistant simplifies creating and customizing email and live content HTML templates, making them accessible to users regardless of their coding experience. Acting like a personal assistant, the Template Assistant allows you to provide instructions or suggestions by typing or using voice commands (prompts), which the assistant executes to help you complete your task.
Whether inserting dynamic content, adjusting styles, or resolving issues, the Template Assistant handles the technical tasks for you, minimizing manual effort. It lets you experiment with styles, personalize content based on user preferences, and apply Liquid logic for seamless dynamic data. This ensures efficiency, accuracy, and precision in your template creation process.
What is a prompt?
A prompt is simply an instruction or request you give to the Template Assistant. Think of it as the command you provide, which the assistant carries out for you.
For example, if you want to include a product grid in your email template, you can type a prompt like:
“Add a product grid with two rows and two columns to showcase product recommendations.”
The assistant will generate the necessary code, which you can review and apply directly to your template.
From creating a new template to improving an existing one, this guide equips you to fully utilize the Template Assistant, making your template creation process more efficient and streamlined.
Please note
The Template Assistant is currently available in the HTML editor for Email and Live Content templates.
