i have email template for our lead follow up emails where we usually suggest a date 2 business days of sending the email. currently, it is a pain to manually update the date every time we send email. is there a way to insert it dynamically the way we can do the personalization attributes?
@Glay_Imutan Sorry, I completely missed that this post was about email. Unfortantely, Hubspot does not support formatting on contact properties in email. 😔
As stated in their documentation : "Please note that using filters on any personalization variables (such as but not limited to contacts, company, and deal variables) is not currently supported for email in HubSpot due to how emails are rendered"
If this answer solved your question, please mark it as the solution.
You don't need a personalization token or workflow. You just need one little line of HubL -
{{ datetimeformat(local_dt, '%B %e, %Y') }}
You can hardcode it into a module or you can even paste it into the HTML of a richtext module. Note: if placed in a richtext module it'll show as code in the page editor, but the date will be rendered in preview and on send). Ex:
Page Editor (Do not type directly into the rich text, open the source code)
Preview

I need to add a variable date as well, but I'd like to add, for example, 21 days after the current date. I'm using this to communicate an expiration date that changes with an email send from a workflow. It can't link to the content.update information. It needs to link to whatever date the email is sent out. Can you help me?

inserting date into email template
SOLVE
There is no token that you can use that inserts the date.
One thing you could try is a workflow to manage the email send. If you use a workflow then you can have a field with the date that triggers the email then you can use a personalization token for a date field.
