Email token in Send Email Campaign Flow Step

[jayherman]

We have a need to have a single smart campaign, but we need to email to be different each time the campaign is executed. I noticed that the "Send Email" step in Flow step in Smart Campaigns seems to accept tokens, like so:

But I can't get it to work. I'm filling out the token (via the API) with the folder name and email name like so: My Folder.My Email

Has anyone been able to get this to work with a "my" token?

Thanks.

Neither the temporary/runtime {{my.token}} nor a permanent {{my.token}} can be used there. It’ll be interpreted as a meaningless string, not dereferenced to the actual email asset.

That is what I was afraid of. 

We've tried what was suggested in the examples and filled out our email detail using a template/email and a token. But the problem is that the lead tokens in the detail will not work then. We were hoping to find an answer to that.

A combination of Velocity and a runtime {{my.token}} can do that.
