Using a message template

When you’re in the inbox in a conversation, you can easily find your created templates in two ways:
  • When you are typing a message, you can use the hotkey # to call up a message template. For example, if your template starts with: ‘Thanks for your question…’, type ‘#Thank you’ and your template will appear immediately.
  • Click on the message icon (place icon here) to open all your templates. It also contains a search function, so you can quickly find the right message.
