How Can I Create Dynamic Placeholders (Merge Variables) For Use in My Library Entries?

A Merge Variable is a placeholder value that can be dynamically populated. Merge Variables allow you to update and maintain dynamic pieces of information in your Library in an easy, centralized way.

Adding Merge Variables to Library Entries

To create a Merge Variable:

1. Navigate to the Merge Variables page by clicking Library then selecting Merge Variables
   
   This will bring you to a page containing a table with any existing Merge Variables, like so:
   
2. Scroll to the bottom of the Merge Variables table and click + Add new Merge Variable
3. Enter your Merge Variable details:
   
   
   
   • Variable Name: The name or topic of your Merge Variable (this is how it will appear in the Library Entry create and edit flows)
   • Value: The value that currently defines your Merge Variable (this is the value that will display in your saved Library Entries when the Merge Variable is used)
   • Comment/instructions: Any context that will help your Users to ensure this variable is used as intended
4. Click the purple check button to save your Merge Variable

Once created, Merge Variables can be inserted into your Library Entries to apply the Merge Variable value - like this example, using the "Company Location" Merge Variable from the steps above:
