Creating an Event Notifications template
An IBM Cloud Event Notifications template defines the layout and content of notifications (email, webhook, Slack, etc.). Templates can include images, static text, and dynamic content (variables, conditional logic) based on events.
Event Notifications supports two types of templates:
-
User-defined templates: You can design your own templates to structure notification messages.
-
Pre-defined templates: These are standard templates defined for a pair of specific source and destination. You can customize pre-defined templates to create a user defined template.
