Custom Emails
If built-in Email notifications are not enough, you can customize emails sent when something happens to your Environments:
Create an Automation
For Email automations, you need to set the list of recipients that can be both static (ex: a known distribution list) or dynamic (to Jira users members of given groups).
Custom Subject and Content
Enable the "Custom Message" toggle in order to customize content of your Email messages. Start from the provided default template to build your own custom templates:
Example of dynamic subject:
1
Environment {{environment.application.name}} {{environment.category.name}} has been updated by {{user.displayName}}

Example of dynamic HTML e-mail:
1
{% macro displayProperty(propertyName, propertyValue) %}
2
<td width="160" valign="top" style="padding: 0px 0px 2px 0px;font-family: Helvetica, Arial, sans-serif;">

<b>{{ propertyName }}:</b>

</td>

<td width="400" valign="bottom" style="padding: 0px 0px 2px 0px;font-family: Helvetica, Arial, sans-serif;">
