Once configured, your instance will start using your account to send the user invitation, password reset, and other emails.
Change email templates
By default, email templates and subjects are provided as environment variables, so you can adjust the emails by modifying their content:
1
# tells that email will be send as plain text/html
2
UI_BAKERY_MAILING_TEMPLATES_MODE=custom
3
4
UI_BAKERY_MAILING_WELCOME_TEMPLATE=Hello userName,<br> Welcome to UI Bakery workspace.

UI_BAKERY_MAILING_WELCOME_SUBJECT=Welcome to UI Bakery workspace

7
UI_BAKERY_MAILING_RESET_PASSWORD_TEMPLATE=Hello userName,<br> Here's your <a href="resetPasswordUrl">password reset link</a>.
8
UI_BAKERY_MAILING_RESET_PASSWORD_SUBJECT=Reset password request

UI_BAKERY_MAILING_CONFIRM_EMAIL_CHANGE_TEMPLATE=Hello userName,<br> Here's a link <a href="changeEmailUrl">to change your email</a>.

UI_BAKERY_MAILING_SHARE_WITH_USER_TEMPLATE=Hello userName,<br> Here's a <a href="organizationUrl">link to access the organizationName workspace</a>.

You can use the following built-in email variables to add user values to your emails:

Alternatively, you can setup email temples using Sendgrid dynamic templates and put template ids instead of plain HTML emails:
1
# tells that email will be send as using dynamic templates
2
UI_BAKERY_MAILING_TEMPLATES_MODE=provided
3
4
UI_BAKERY_MAILING_WELCOME_TEMPLATE=d-c3f84d76543941c084ff2de0exxxxxxx
5
UI_BAKERY_MAILING_RESET_PASSWORD_TEMPLATE=d-c3f84d76543941c084ff2de0exxxxxxx
6
UI_BAKERY_MAILING_CONFIRM_EMAIL_CHANGE_TEMPLATE=d-c3f84d76543941c084ff2de0exxxxxxx
7
UI_BAKERY_MAILING_SHARE_WITH_USER_TEMPLATE=d-c3f84d76543941c084ff2de0exxxxxxx
Copied!
Note, that in this case an email subject will be taken from a dynamic template configuration and variables such as
UI_BAKERY_MAILING_WELCOME_SUBJECT will be ignored.This way, you don't need to manage templates content inside of your environment variables and can build more advanced email with images and custom styles.
