Apache Velocity Engine
IdentityIQ email templates are processed through an open-source engine called Apache Velocity. Velocity is a Java-based template engine that allows web page designers to reference methods defined in Java code. IdentityIQ email templates make use of the Velocity Template Language to dynamically specify the email messages' contents and generate custom email messages specific to the recipient, work item, and action involved.
The Velocity Template Language (VTL) is a fairly simple to use. Highlights are included below, and full documentation on the syntax is available in the Apache Velocity User Guide or Reference Guide.
