Zephyr Syntax

Sailthru includes a sophisticated template syntax called "Zephyr" that lets you personalize emails. Unless otherwise noted, all of this syntax applies both to transactional and campaign messages.

You can use Zephyr in the following places:

• From Name of messages
• Subject of messages
• HTML and text content of messages
• Inside rewritten links
• Setup section (special code that runs before any of the above)
• Hosted Sailthru pages

Based on client requests, we continue to update a list of Common Zephyr Examples.

• basics - Basic variable replacement and standard variables
• expressions - Expressions and basic operators
• control-structures - Simple control structures, conditionals, and loops
• assignment - Assigning local variables
• function - List of functions
• data feeds - Pulling data from a feed.

• profile - What's in the user's profile object, exactly?
• message - What's in the transactional email message object, exactly?
• braces - What's the difference between single and double braces?
• link-rewriting - How link tracking works in concert with Zephyr
