Notes - plain text body in email notification?

On the notification emails for subscriptions, there is a variable called   ${notification.plainTextBody} But the notes message only has this:     ${note.getBody()} I can't seem to find any alt...

jaread83 - There is no alternative context object which is mentioned in the documentation. However, as a workaround, you can remove all the HTML using velocity method. 

 

Can you give a try to below two methods. 

${note.getBody().replace("</?[^>]+/?>", "")}
${note.getBody().replaceAll("</?[^>]+/?>", "")}

I found this from here.

    Hi Tariq, good to see you!

    I will certainly give that a try :) Using regex seems like an elegant solution!

    I don't know why there wouldn't be a text only alternative to the body message as part of the system. I might need to raise a product idea about it.
