The NetIM notification templates utilizes the ThymeLeaf template framework (https://www.thymeleaf.org/) and is a very advanced feature NetIM provides many out-of-the-box sample templates for you to clone and tweak/edit. The system-defined templates should cover most of your needs or require only minimal editing to support your use-cases. Your most common use-case might be to select another system-defined template as the default template for a notification type and object type. To support your template creation and editing, the Notification Templates page contains contextual help on the objects and attributes that can be used in your template.
