TABLE OF CONTENTS

Common Keywords

User's migration date and time: [UserMigrations-DeployUnitSlotStart]

User ICA calendar file attachment: [Attachment-SelfSchedule-InviteIcs]

Raw list: https://support.managementstudio.com/support/solutions/articles/14000116379-keywords-raw-list


Images

Useful for corporate branding etc:

  • Administration -> Project Resources -> Add Resource -> Browse to file -> Open
  • Make a note of the filename (e.g. logo.png) or the numerical ID (e.g. 7)
  • Go to the email editor (eg. For Surveys go to Admin -> [module] -> Surveys -> Emails)
  • Add line ![Image description]([IMG-logo.png]) if using the filename, or ![Image description]([IMG-7]) if using the image ID


The IMG- prefix wrapped in square brackets (e.g. [IMG-logo.png]) is used by ManagementStudio to denote that this is an image file rather than a standard keyword.  Without IMG- the image will not be displayed.
