Templates own the message content in Nudge. Triggers and bulk sends reference a template; the template decides the words, the language and the attachment.
The template library with channel and language columns

Variables

Write [firstname] and every send resolves it per lead. Built in: [name], [firstname], [lastname], [fullname], [phone], and [owner] for the assigned rep’s name. Beyond those, any field in your registry can become a variable: mark the field “use as variable” in Workspace setup and [bill] or [rooftype] starts resolving. List fields can map raw values to display text, so a stored gable_roof renders as “Gable roof” in the message. Adjacent tokens space themselves correctly and empty values collapse cleanly, so a missing last name never leaves a double space.

Languages

A template can hold one body per language. The rule is strict on purpose:
  • No language tabs: the template is language-agnostic and sends to everyone.
  • With language tabs: each contact gets the body matching their language. If no tab matches, Nudge holds the send rather than deliver the wrong language. A Turkish lead never gets the German version because “something is better than nothing” loses deals.

Media

Attach an image or document from the shared asset library, or paste a public URL. On WhatsApp the body becomes the caption. Assets in use by a template are protected from deletion.

Housekeeping

Each template tracks how often it fired and when it last fired, so the library shows you what actually gets used. A template can also set the contact’s state on send, which is how a sent message arms the next trigger in a chain.
