Create a Token for An Opportunity Field

I need to trigger an e-mail to send based on a status change of a salesforce opportunity.

I need to include in the e-mail the content of a field on the opportunity - a reason/description field.

How can I get or create a token to pull that field from the opportunity and insert it in the body of the e-mail?

Hi David,

You can use script tokens to pull info from the Opportunity object into an email.  http://docs.marketo.com/display/public/DOCS/Create+an+Email+Script+Token

Re: Create a Token for An Opportunity Field

Hi all, how do you ensure that the right token is pulled through when a person may have multiple opportunity contact roles? How is this differentiated? 

I am trying to pull a token through to an email, an opportunity field (e.g. a personalised link for that client), and then send an email to the opportunity contact role, pulling through this link to the email. 

 

I can filter for the contact on the opportunity no problem, but I am struggling to ensure the link on the opportunity is being pulled through to the right opportunity contact role email sent.  I have tried using an email script token with no luck. Thanks

Well, you can loop through the OpportunityList and pick the correct Opportunity record or you can also sort the OpportunityList based on a certain field and then pick data from the first element. If you let us know on what basis you wish to pull the Opportunity record from the OpportunityList (in case a particular field on the Opportunity record equal to a certain value or the latest updated opportunity, etc.), we could help you with the script.

I believe the ability to add an email script in the way that is advised in the link is no longer working - at least not for me.

When I select to add a Token > Email Script, I get an empty dialogue showing no Standard Objects I can select. Just a repeat of the Standard Objects element

I am looking for a way to generate a token to include within an internal email alert that will report on the SalesForce Opportunity field 'Description' 

- How can I achieve this?

Re: Create a Token for An Opportunity Field

Hi Mark,

The screen can be a bit buggy when loading, resulting in the fields in the tree not loading. Closing the screen and trying again should fix that.

Besides that, I would suggest to start a new thread with your question, rather than responding to such an old one. Your interaction can easily get overlooked that way.

Kind regards,

Katja
