Set template to a Delivery Activity using a JavaScript code activity

[CampaignerForLife]

Hi, I would like to know if there is a way to set one delivery activity template using JavaScript code by sending the Delivery template internal name or label. 

Case of use example: 

"I've a list of Recipients with different languages. I loop at them and, for every one, I use an If to select one template name or another. After it, I send it to the delivery activity to have one kind of email or another. "

Also, is there any better way to do this?

Hello @CampaignerForLife 

The best solution would be to split the audience into different segments depending on the language and then use separate delivery for each segment.

Something like this:

If you want to use a single delivery then you can split the audience into different segments and give them a unique segment code. In the delivery use multiple if-else conditions to change the content on the basis of segment code.

In this case, the WF will look like this:

The dynamic condition code would look like this:

<% if(targetData.@segmentCode=='LANG1') { %>
Personalization block or content for LANG 1
<% } else if if(targetData.@segmentCode=='LANG2') { %>
Personalization block or content for LANG 2
<% } else if if(targetData.@segmentCode=='LANG\3') { %>
Personalization block or content for LANG 3
<% } else if if(targetData.@segmentCode=='LANG4') { %>
Personalization block or content for LANG 4
%> } else{ %> 
Fallback content
<% } %>

Thanks for your answer. Is there any way to set the  Template (And other activities config) using JS code)

Hello @CampaignerForLife 

If you are using the start delivery from the actions tab.

Then you can use the script tab to dynamically select the template id.

example code:

delivery.scenario-cs=TEMPLATE_ID;
delivery.scenario-id=TEMPLATE_ID
delivery.save();
