Parameters in Bravo Notes

Parameters in Bravo Notes help you re-use values, bits of content, and store data to be used in your templates.

Types of parameters

When creating a parameter, you can choose between different types:

• Text: Text / string value that you want to use across your template
• Markdown: Snippet of markdown content to be re-used across your template. Use {{> MyMarkdownParameter }} to evaluate handlebars syntax within the content of the parameter
• HTML: Snippet of HTML content to be re-used across your template. Use {{> MyHtmlParameter }} to evaluate handlebars syntax within the content of the parameter
• JSON: Arbitrary JSON string that is passed as data to your template. You can use JSON parameters to store replacement strings, lookup / translation maps, etc.

Usage

Use the param helper to use parameters in your template:

{{ param 'MyParameter' }}

Use triple curly braces if your parameter contains HTML:

{{{ param 'MyHtmlParameter' }}}

Use handlebars partial syntax {{ > MyPartial }} to evaluate handlebars syntax within the content of the parameter:

{{> MyMarkdownParameter }}

Conditional blocks using parameters

Control logic in your template, e.g., to show/hide things based on parameters using the if-param helper:

{{#if-param 'MyParameter' operator='eq' value='True'  }}
ONLY show this if the parameter named 'MyParameter' has the value 'True'
{{/if-param}}
