Custom Verify Email and Forgot Password Mails

I want to use a custom template for my verify email and forgot password mails, and I don’t think Appwrites current template has allowances for what I want to create (a template with images, custom font etc). How can I achieve this?

I tried using a template I created and pass in the data from the createVerification object, but secret keeps returning an empty string

TL;DR

Developers are discussing how to customize the verify email and forgot password mails in Appwrite. One developer shares a link to the documentation for message templates. The question of whether this customization can be done from the console or with a custom SMTP server is raised. Another developer points out that the provided code example is incorrect and suggests using three back ticks for multi-line code. The correct code for customizing the emails is shared. The possibility of adding an image to the custom template is asked, but no response is given. There is confusion about the createVerification object not returning the secret, and it is suggested to define a custom template in the console

Pass in data from create verification object? What do you mean?

You should be able to define a custom template in the console after adding a custom project SMTP

I mean, i tried to manually pass in the data returned when you create an email verification (https://appwrite.io/docs/references/cloud/client-web/account#createVerification) but it doesn’t return the secret

Sorry, I don't understand. Maybe you can share a screenshot or code to give more context?

Can I add an image in this custom template?

TypeScript

  // plug in verification data to template
  await axios.post('/api/welcome-user', {
    to: email,
    title: `Welcome, ${firstName}!`,
    redirectLink,
  });
