Hi everybody

Can anyone tell me how I can add a default subject line and message body, when I create a ‘Mailto-link’ in Klaviyo’s new editor? 

It seems it was possible in the classic editor (https://help.klaviyo.com/hc/en-us/articles/115005085147-How-to-add-a-link-to-an-email-address), so I recon the feature should also exist in the new editor?

Hope you guys can help med🙏🙏🙏

Best,

Mette

    Hi @Mettem

     

    Thanks for sharing your question with us! I can definitely understand wanting to know how to do this is the new editor, happy to help! 

     

    You can add the default  subject line and body you want to auto-populate into the link itself. The formatting of the link would be like this:

    mailto:youremail@example.com?subject=Your Subject Line&body=Your Message Content

    You would add the desired subject line after subject= and then add your body content after body=, replacing what is in the example. This will allow your subject line and body content to populate in the email that is opened!

    Just to add to @Taylor Tarpley comment, I like using this little tool (no affiliation) to generate mailto code that you can quickly copy/paste into your email template (just remember to paste as source).
