Flag the Information as a Custom Tag
Anything appearing within the "<" and ">" signs will automatically be read as variable information based on the contact from your data file.
For example, to include the Contact's polling location you can write <voter.pollingaddress> in the message.

To include variable information, you need to know the proper formatting. In the table below, you will find a list of commonly used tags and their meanings that can be used for reference. The information in the "field name" category is what you should import into your Survey.
To insert variable information from a custom field, use the exact "Nickname" of the custom field that you created in the Import Mapping page. Use "_" for spaces, and make sure that the format and capitalization are identical to the Nickname you created.
