The emails are comprised of particular placeholders which are automatically replaced with the predefined text (in the language file) upon sending. These placeholders are shown in CAPS within [ ]. The email templates, along with their supported placeholders, are given below:

  1. The availability of the "Notifications" tab depends on the permissions configured for your assigned role. The ability to edit or reset notifications further depends on whether the "Edit" permission for "Notifications" is enabled in the assigned role.

  2. Text shown in CAPS within [ ] is the placeholder (system variable) that is used in the email content. You must not edit the text of these variables. They will be replaced automatically with the predefined text from the language file upon sending the email notification.

  3. In case you are logged in as an enterprise user and edit your personal email content, then your email modifications (in the content) will overrule your default enterprise email content.

  4. The emails sent from an enterprise account and from SigningHub to the enterprise users are branded as per the enterprise branding configurations, and will have the company-defined customisations (i.e. header, footer, logo, etc.) in the email content.

  5. The existing users who have upgraded their SigningHub to the latest release may click the "Reset to Default" button to get the new email types in the "Type" drop-down.

  6. Email layout can be rendered from right to left in case of those languages that has right to left script, this can be done by configuring email notifications' advanced settings.
