using "Contains()" in email template

[Joon]

Hello All,

I am trying to use "contains" in email template like below, but it seems wrong since i got no email when I use this function. can you give me an advice to improve ?

Below are what I have tried but not worked

<% if(${task?.taskdate}.contains('07:'))" print "hello" else print "Bye" %>

<% if((${task?.taskdate}).contains('07:'))" print "hello" else print "Bye" %>

<% if(task?.taskdate.contains('07:')) print "Hello" else print "BYE" %>

Thanks for your response! but unfortunately, it doesn't work for me ..

[rushikeshvartak]

<%if (task.taskdate.contains('07:')) print "HELLO" else print "BYE" %>

Which mail template are you testing 

below should work 

<%if (1=1) print "HELLO" else print "BYE" %>

I work on the template for endpoint level. doesn't it require "$" to use binding variables ?

What is email trigger point ? Task creation / Request Approval ?

[Joon]

it's triggered when task completed for remove access

[Joon]

<% if ("${task?.source}" == "CERTIFICATION") print "HELLO" else print "BYE" %>

This one works properly. but i'm not sure where to put "contains" in the statement

[rushikeshvartak]

<% if ("${task?.source?.contains("CERTIFICATION")} print "HELLO" else print "BYE" %>

Thanks for the prompt answer! I really appreciate it.

but It still won't be working with "contains"...😢

Below is what i tried as per your suggestion but couldn't get an email.

${task?.taskdate}<br><% if ("${task?.taskdate?.contains('07:')}" print "HELLO" else print "BYE" %>

but I will get the output like below If I would go with only ${task?taskdate}

<%if(task.taskdate.toString().contains('07:')){print "Hello Joon"} else {print "Bye Joon"}%>
