## Available Variables

During sendout, Mapp Engage replaces each placeholder with the value of the group in which the message is sent.

| Variable | Placeholder | Description |
| --- | --- | --- |
| Group Name | `<%${group['Name']}%>` | Name of the group. |
| Group Email | `<%${group['Email']}%>` | Email address of the group, as defined in the group settings. |
| Group Category | `<%${group['CategoryName']}%>` | Name of the group category. A group category is a keyword that you assign to groups to organize, filter, or search for them. |
| Group Category ID | `<%${group['catid']}%>` | ID of the group category. |
| Group Language | `<%${group['Language']}%>` | ISO language code of the group, for example `en` for English. |
| Group Country | `<%${group['ISOCountryCode']}%>` | ISO country code of the group. |

For more group placeholders, such as the group ID or the group description, see [Placeholders for Message, Group, and System Data](/v1/docs/placeholders-for-message-group-and-system-data).
