Overview
Email templates are any email communications that are sent via an action from your SnapHire system e.g. "Send onboarding request to candidate". The email templates on actions that are configured to send an email are editable by users who have been granted the "Can manage email templates" permission. This permission is in the configuration hub section of the permissions that are able to be granted to a user.
Managing your organisation's email templates
We recommend only giving this permission to one or two key admin users within your organisation. A user in your organisation with the "Manage users" ability can grant you the "Can manage email templates" permission above.
Once granted to you, you will be able to access the "Manage email templates" option within the system configuration section of the admin tab from your SnapHire account.
You will need to click on the "Manage email templates" option and you will then be presented with a screen that outlines all actions that send emails from actions that are on your menu, e.g. "Send offer package to candidate", as well as all other actions which send emails from the system e.g. SYSTEM actions and Timed Application actions.
