What are the default email templates used in Automation workflows?

In this article, we will explain the default email templates available in your Automation workflows and what to update before using them.

A default email template is automatically created when you create an Automation workflow using our workflow templates. You must update it before using it in a workflow to choose your own settings, add your company's information and personalize the design.
