Hi @KlemenHrovat,
Correct, sequence emails are personalized at the time of scheduling, they don’t dynamically reference the token at the time of sending. In that sense, I don’t see any workarounds beyond making it a manual send.
Automated workflow emails work differently, they pull the value for a token at the time of sending. However, these emails behave differently entirely, they’re not sent from a personally connected inbox but (technically) as a bulk send via a connected and authenticated marketing email sending domain. It’s a simplification but generally these emails have a higher likelihood of being categorized as promotional or spam.
They’re not really a replacement for sequences, also considering that they don’t follow the same unenrollment rules like sequences: Unenroll contacts from a sequence (Similar criteria can however be setup.)
Let me know if you have any follow-up questions!
