# Email Custom Fields

Custom fields are available when you are editing emails either when Sending Manual Emails, creating email templates, or creating emails in [Collection Paths](https://docs.credithoundcloud.com/v1/docs/what-are-collection-paths).

Custom Fields FormatAll custom fields start with **{{** and end with **}}**
