Goals and Outcomes
The Dynamic Products block allows you to display products in your email based on triggers from flows. This feature helps you create personalized and relevant emails for your customers, increasing engagement and conversion rates.
Dynamic Products Block Overview
The Dynamic Products block displays products in your email, based on triggers from flows. For example:
If your flow’s trigger is an abandoned cart, your email can include the products left in the cart
If your flow’s trigger is an order, your order confirmation email can list the purchased products
In the Dynamic Products block, you can define how many products to display, and which product details to include, for example, the product image, the price, the quantity, etc. You can add the Dynamic Products block to emails when creating or editing flows, and to templates that you use in your flows.
Important
The Dynamic Product block is available when creating or editing a flow with an email action. The block is not available for regular campaigns.

When you log into the platform and navigate to the Flows section, you can create a new flow from scratch or use a template. In the ACTION - EMAIL step, you can click 'Edit design' to start customizing your email with the Dynamic Products block.
