[rt-users] Newbie question regarding Custom Fields in Templates

[Bill Weaver]

No, that didn't work either. In fact, it fails to generate a message at all when I put that in the template so obviously that object isn't defined inside a template. At least with $Ticket a message generates, I just can't get to the data I need. I'm doing something wrong in my reference, I just don't know what it is.

Try $TicketObj->FirstCustomFieldValue() instead. Its what I’ve had success with in my scrips.

I spent the day in the RT Essentials book and on the Wiki trying to figure out how to create a custom Template that will autoreply. These autoreplies are in response to a request for information in a sales queue. I've got everything working except that I can't seem to get to a custom value I need into the Template. 

Basically we have a webform that emails the data to RT. I was able to scrape the email and get the values into the custom fields (using ExtractCustomFieldValues) - one of those values is the email address they want to be contacted at. When I try to reference that within a Template like this: 

To: {$Ticket->FirstCustomFieldValue('Email');} 

It returns undef. I know the value is there in the ticket - I can see it on the screen. The field is called Email. So what am I doing wrong? I've researched what I could and fought with it all day - I need some help please! 

Thanks!
