Handles: the words filled in for you

Insert handles with the buttons in the template editor rather than typing them, so the wording always matches. Formatting you put over a handle, such as making [date and time] bold, is kept.

In every template

Handle	Reads as
[First name]	Their first name. On a link with No name it is left out and the words around it close up, so Hi [First name], reads Hi there, (your greeting word) or Hi,.
[tomorrow or day]	tomorrow, or on Friday.
[tomorrow or day and time]	tomorrow at 3:40 pm or Friday at 11:30 am, with a capital T when it starts a sentence.
[date and time]	Friday 23rd October at 10:00 am in an email; Fri 23 Oct, 10:00am in a text. It follows the date style under Settings › Your details.
[calendar and link]	Email only: the Respond to this time button, or the calendar icon and underlined words, as chosen under Settings › Appearance. Left out of a subject line.
[link]	Text message only: the link itself.
[short code]	Email only: the short address, such as chalkedin.com/r/AZFSWKWB, to type in if a mail filter breaks the link.

Only when you use them

Handle	Offered when
[Address]	You collect their address (Settings › Privacy).
[Location name] [Location address]	You meet at a Fixed location and have filled these in (Settings › Scheduling).
[Platform] [Joining link]	You meet online and have filled these in. See Online meetings.
[reply by]	Reminder templates only: when the link stops taking answers, its auto-expiry or the proposed time.

In a subject line

The subject takes the same handles as the message, except [calendar and link]. Leave the subject empty and the copy panel offers nothing to paste.
