Preview & Testing Templates

Before sending templates to production users, test them with live preview data directly in the dashboard.

Live Preview Data Panel

In the template editor, open the Preview Data tab in the right-hand inspector:

{
  "first_name": "Jordan",
  "plan_name": "Enterprise Cloud",
  "renewal_date": "October 1, 2026",
  "order": {
    "shipping_address": {
      "city": "Austin",
      "country": "United States"
    }
  }
}

The canvas instantly updates to display the template filled with your preview JSON variables.

Sending a Live Test Email

Click the Send Test button in the editor header.
Enter your email address.
Choose whether to use the current preview JSON variables.
Click Send Test. Inspect the received email in Gmail, Apple Mail, or Outlook to verify formatting and mobile responsiveness.
