    Article summary

    The Content Management (Email) feature lets you control which parts of an email message the message creator can modify. The feature also allows you to specify how the message creator can format content in the message or change styling information.

    In addition to the global styles that are defined in the framework, you can define style information for each block individually. Style information includes text alignment and text formatting.

    When you allow the message creator to format content, different toolbars are available that contain defined editing actions and formatting options. The type parameter determines which toolbars the message creator can use to format the content.

    The following type parameters provide a toolbar:

    • text

    • styledtext

    • richtext

    • image

    This table lists which actions each toolbars offers.
