MSG91 allows you to send emails directly from the panel without any coding.

How to Send an Email via MSG91 Panel
Navigate to the Email Section
Go to Email → Send Email in your MSG91 dashboard.
Choose Your Sending Method
Manually Add Email IDs – Use this option to test or send a one-time email.
Select Segmento – Choose a pre-saved audience segment.
Upload CSV – For sending emails to bulk lists.
If Selecting “Manually Add Email IDs”
Enter the recipient email(s) or your team’s email ID for testing.
Select the Email Template you want to use.
After Selecting, you can see the exact number of variables (e.g., 2) when you click Preview.
Next Map Template Variables
In the Variable Mapping section, provide the variable values in double quotes.
Example: "MSG91", "1234"
Next Set Sender Details
Choose the Domain, From Name, and From Email ID from dropdown.
Click Review & Send to launch your email campaign.
If Selecting “Segmento”
Pick a Phonebook and saved Segment (your pre-defined audience group).
Choose the Email Template you want to send.
Map the variable value based on the template:
$ → to select a column from your Segment data (like Name, City, Mobile, etc.)
# → to add a custom value (fixed for all)

Example 1 – Using Segment fields with $Your Segment has fields: Name, City
Template:
Hi {{Name}}, welcome to MSG91 from {{City}}!
Mapping:
{{Name}} → $Name
{{City}} → $City
Result:
Hi Karan, welcome to MSG91 from Indore!
Example 2 – Mixing Segment field and custom value #Your Segment has fields: Name, Email
Template:
 Hi {{Name}}, your OTP is {{OTP}}.
Mapping:
{{Name}} → $Name (from Segment field)
{{OTP}} → #1234 (fixed value)
Result:
Hi Bhaskar, your OTP is 1234.
Hi Bison, your OTP is 1234.
Example 3 – Full custom values with #
Even if your Segment does not have matching fields, you can still send fixed values.
Template:
Hello {{User}}, your subscription is valid till {{Date}}.
Mapping:
{{User}} → #Customer
{{Date}} → #30-Sep-2025
Result:
Hello Customer, your subscription is valid till 30-Sep-2025.

Tip: $ pulls data from your Segment fields, while # lets you enter a fixed/custom value.
If Uploading “CSV”
Upload your CSV file containing recipient details (e.g., Name, Email, City).
Choose the Email Template you want to send.
Map the variable value based on the template:
$ → to select a column from your CSV.
# → to add a custom value (fixed for all).

Example 1 – Personalized Renewal Reminder with CSVCSV columns: Name, ExpiryDate
Template:
Hello {{Name}}, your subscription will expire on {{ExpiryDate}}. Please renew to continue services.
Mapping:
