NVelocity is an open-source Java template engineering framework. The Custom Merge Raw [NVelocity] step merges data into a text format according to a defined template. These templates generate a variety of structured text formats, including CSS, HTML, and XML. Due to its support of these languages, NVelocity has a high level of flexibility that limits the user's ability to code in the chosen language. Unlike the TextMerge step, which only merges to plain or HTML Text, NVelocity steps offer the utmost flexibility with data template merging and formatting to fit a user's needs. 

Example Use Cases

  • Building a custom email body with a button link.
  • Applying custom CSS formatting of an email body, PDF, or Word Document.
  • Implementing reference image links using HTML.
