Changelog

Duplicate as layout

Create template layouts based on existing templates. If you already have a Waypoint template with headers and footers that you’d like to use as a base for our new template layouts. You can now simply click on ‘Duplicate as layout’ from the additional actions context menu on a template and then modify your new layout as needed.

Template layouts

New feature: Template Layouts. Template Layouts allow your team to share content blocks and styles across dynamic email templates. Effortlessly keep your template styling consistent and save your team maintenance headaches with shared header and footer content. Learn more and watch a tutorial in our docs.

Sandbox API requests

New sandbox API requests on Waypoint to test emails. Simply change the POST URL on testing environments to include a sandbox flag. API triggers with the sandbox flag will not deliver the email to the address in the ‘to’ field. The email message inputs and outputs will simply be stored on the your dashboard’s activity logs for debugging and review. Learn more in our docs.

Dynamic images

Dynamically set URL source on image blocks within our template builder. This is especially useful when looping through self hosted images using our recently released Loop block.

Block navigation

Over the last couple of weeks, we released new Loop, Columns, and Container blocks that support block nesting. As the complexity of layouts evolved, it became important to be able to traverse within groupings.

This is why we added a tiny but very helpful feature that helps you navigate within each group of blocks by clicking on breadcrumb links.

Loop block

New data-driven Loop block on Waypoint’s dynamic template builder. Visually iterate through your data without having to write a single line of code.

Container block

New container block on Waypoint’s dynamic email template builder for grouping blocks! Combine this with our ‘Columns’ block we released last week to quickly build powerful layouts for data-rich product emails.

Resizable drawer on the template builder

New resizable drawer on Waypoint’s dynamic template builder. This is a tiny feature but a big quality of life improvement when working with larger test data, test scenarios, and/or custom HTML blocks within Waypoint’s dynamic email template builder.

Columns block

New multi-column block on Waypoint’s dynamic email template builder. Create advanced layouts by nesting blocks.
