Adding Images to an Email Template (Hosting Images Online)
To add an image to a YAPI email template, the image needs to be "hosted" online. This is just a fancy way of saying you're putting the image online so that your patients can access it in their email. Below, you'll learn how to host your image online and add the image to your email template either in the Dashboard or through the Practice Online Portal (POP).
