ITL - ilert template language

The ITL enables you to customize and design alerts tailored to your specific use cases. In addition to offering flexibility in formatting and structuring alerts, it also provides a variety of built-in functions to further enhance the alerts' readablility.

In the UI's text mode, you may use the Insert data... dropdown to help you add template variables quickly - the text syntax works like this:

Type

Sample

Description

Text

Some text

You may, of course, add generic text content to your liking.

Variable

{{var}}

Extract content of the event and insert it. Note: there is no further sanitizing of the values.

Accessing nested variables

{{ var.subfield.evenMore }}

Access sub fields

Accessing fields of an array

{{ var.arrayField[0].more }}

Access array contents

Access more complex keys

{{ var.compl:ex\ key-123.noproblem }}

Complex keys can be accessed by escaping whitespaces or simply writing them out e.g. colons. No index style needed.

Applying functions to variables

{{var.lowerCase()}}

See Functions below, for a list of all functions.

Passing arguments to functions

{{var.splitTakeAt("one two", 10)}}

Sections (if/else blocks)

See Sections below.

Loops (for blocks)

See Loops below.

Note that when rendering variables their content is not (HTML) escaped.

Functions

ITL allows you to apply functions for different use cases, such as string manipulation, date-time formatting, joining arrays. This flexibility makes it simple to handle text formatting, data extraction, and transformations, all within the same template.

Blocks

The ITL also supports block based sections and loops, providing flexibility in handling complex templates and varying data sets efficiently.

Sections [if]

Sections allow for conditional rendering, where specific content is displayed only if a certain value exists or meets a given condition. Positive conditions check if a value is present or true, while inverted conditions render content when the value is false or missing. A section begins with a hash # and ends with a slash /.


{{ #isTrue }}
Hello
{{ /isTrue }}
World!


{{ #isFalse }}
Hello
{{ /isFalse }}
World!

Using the following context:

{
    "isTrue": true,
    "isFalse": false
}

Hello World!

World!

Inverted sections [else]

Inverted sections only render content based on the inverse value of a context key.

An inverted section begins with a caret ^ and ends with a slash /. Example:

Hello

{{ #isTrue }}
World!
{{ /isTrue }}
{{ ^isTrue }}
Tim!
{{ /isTrue }}

Hello

{{ #isFalse }}
World!
{{ /isFalse }}
{{ ^isFalse }}
Tim!
{{ /isFalse }}

Using the following context:

{
    "isTrue": true,
    "isFalse": false
}

Hello World!

Hello Tim!

Loops [for]

Loops allow to iterate over each item of a list or array of data and display render them as text.

A loop is written in the same way as a section. It begins with a hash # and ends with a slash /. Inside the loop, you place the key that represents the list or array item to be iterated over.


{{ #simple }}
{{.}}
{{ /simple }}


{{ #nested }}
{{ name }}
{{ /nested }}

Using the following context:

{
    "simple": ["Pied Piper", "Hooli", "Raviga"],
    "nested": [
        { "name": "Richard Hendricks" },
        { "name": "Gavin Belson" },
        { "name": "Peter Gregory" }
    ]
}

Pied Piper
Hooli
Raviga

Richard Hendricks
Gavin Belson
Peter Gregory

Blocks

The ITL also supports block based sections and loops, providing flexibility in handling complex templates and varying data sets efficiently.

Sections [if]


{{ #isTrue }}
Hello
{{ /isTrue }}
World!


{{ #isFalse }}
Hello
{{ /isFalse }}
World!

Using the following context:

{
    "isTrue": true,
    "isFalse": false
}

Hello World!

World!

Inverted sections [else]

Inverted sections only render content based on the inverse value of a context key.

An inverted section begins with a caret ^ and ends with a slash /. Example:

Hello

{{ #isTrue }}
World!
{{ /isTrue }}
{{ ^isTrue }}
Tim!
{{ /isTrue }}

Hello

{{ #isFalse }}
World!
{{ /isFalse }}
{{ ^isFalse }}
Tim!
{{ /isFalse }}

Using the following context:

{
    "isTrue": true,
    "isFalse": false
}

Hello World!

Hello Tim!

Loops [for]

Loops allow to iterate over each item of a list or array of data and display render them as text.

are only applicable to absolute variable keys, therefore they cannot be used on the relative variable keys generated by loop blocks. While they are still resolved inside of the block, their content is repeated which each loop iteration.

A loop is written in the same way as a section. It begins with a hash # and ends with a slash /. Inside the loop, you place the key that represents the list or array item to be iterated over.


{{ #simple }}
{{.}}
{{ /simple }}


{{ #nested }}
{{ name }}
{{ /nested }}

Using the following context:

{
    "simple": ["Pied Piper", "Hooli", "Raviga"],
    "nested": [
        { "name": "Richard Hendricks" },
        { "name": "Gavin Belson" },
        { "name": "Peter Gregory" }
    ]
}

Pied Piper
Hooli
Raviga

Richard Hendricks
Gavin Belson
Peter Gregory
