Negativelengthvalues are supported (then we'll use a substring from the end of a string).

formatpart is optional. Default isYYYY-MM-DD-hh-mmformatpart supports following tokens:YYYY,MM,DD,hh,mmhhis formatted in 24-hour modeThe entire date is formatted in local time (based on current computer OS settings).
If you use any reserved characters in the
formatvalue they will be replaced with a dash-Examples:
<datesent>-->2023-11-28-23-59<datesent:mydate-YYYY-MM-dd>-->mydate-2023-11-28<datesent:YYYY-MM-dd at hh-mm>-->2023-05-08 at 06:06
Any custom field label belonging to any of company's incoming pages (configured under Settings - Filemail).
To include a custom field named
Order IDuse<Order ID>as the placholder.All custom field labels placeholders support
lengthattribute for trimming.Example:
<Order ID:20>See description of
subjectabove for more details around trimming.
⚠️ Note: all placeholders and date tokens are case sensitive.
⚠️ Note: if there are some unresolved placeholders (some transfer fields are optional, including custom fields) they will be resolved. Example: when transfer is sent without a message then <message> placeholder will be resolved to [missing_message].
⚠️ Keep in mind that < and > are reserved characters on Windows and cannot be part of a file path.
📢 Tip for Windows users: in general avoid using reserved path characters: <>:"/|? in the folder path and in the dates' format part.
