Create a form for a web template

To further enable marketers to customize a web experiment or web experience without using code, technical users can create dynamic forms for the marketer to complete, without ever having to edit HTML. All the marketer has to do is enter or select the content they want to display in the web experiment or experience, as shown in the following image.

An example of a web template form for a marketer added to an experience.

To add configurable parameters to a web template, in the HTML editor, add the template parameter syntax to the required HTML block:

RequestResponse
[[parameter_name | type | default_value | {config1: value1, config2: value2 } ]]

The following image shows the parameters entered in the HTML tab:
