This reference document lists all the variables that are available for Adobe Commerce (previously Magento 2) transactional email campaigns. You can also use any Adobe Commerce variables in the subject line of your transactional email template. When building your transactional email templates, the variables must be inserted to merge the customer, order, and shipping information.

Before you start

Things you need to know:

  • Using Dotdigital data fields in your Adobe Commerce transactional email template causes the send to fail because the sends are triggered directly from Adobe Commerce.

  • Since Adobe Commerce is customisable, each environment can interpret the variables differently. It's strongly recommended to reach out to your agency for a detailed list of variables that you can use.

  • There's no guarantee the variables in this article will work in your unique environment. Support is limited and suggestions can only be provided to you. It's not possible to tell you which ones you should use, and because of this, your agency is the best resource to help answer these types of questions.
