  • The @firstname@ variable will be replaced by the first name of each recipient.
  • The @senderfirstname@ variable will be replaced with the first name of the sender – the initiator of the workflow.
  • The @objectname@ variable will be replaced by the name of the file.


  • Similar to how we can list out the level 2 activities in a web page view using the code:
<table>[#(?object=object;orderby=field)<tr><td>~field~</td><td>~field~</td><td>~field~</td><td>$customfield id$</td></tr>#]</table>
We can now do the same thing inside a workflow. The result however will not be HTML enabled, but it follows the same syntax.

Attaching the Object

1. Click the checkbox of the Attach object field.
