Note: If initializing a File Manager application, the only supported method is beePluginInstance.start() without parameters.
Assuming that beePluginInstance is the instance of your embedded builder application, here are the methods you can call:
| Method | Description |
|---|---|
If you use a paid plan, you can hide the top toolbar and control the builder from your application’s user interface. For example, it’s up to you at that point to have buttons above or below the builder. Here’s some useful methods for this scenario:
| Method | Description |
|---|---|
The top toolbar displayed by default within the builder contains buttons that trigger certain actions. These are the callbacks that are triggered when the buttons are clicked.
| Event | Description | Returned values |
|---|---|---|
beePluginInstance.start(templateToLoad)
Starts the builder, loading the templateToLoad JSON string with the template structure (if specified). If using the NPM package, you have additional options to pass here as defined on the NPM page.
beePluginInstance.load(template)
Loads the JSON template string specified in the template parameter.
beePluginInstance.reload(template)
Loads the JSON template string specified in the template parameter. Unlike beePluginInstance.load(template), the reload method does not trigger a loading dialog. This method helps quickly reload a template seamlessly for specific use cases, such as using a custom undo/redo feature or injecting custom content in real-time.
beePluginInstance.preview()
Triggers the message preview behavior within the builder.
beePluginInstance.togglePreview()
Open/close the message preview behavior within the builder.
beePluginInstance.toggleStructure()
Controls the visibility of the structure outlines in the message editing portion of the builder.
beePluginInstance.save()
Invokes the onSave callback function. The application will pass two files to the function: a JSON file with the message structure (for later editing) and a ready-to-send HTML file.
beePluginInstance.saveAsTemplate()
Invokes the onSaveAsTemplate callback function. The application will pass to the function a JSON file with the message structure (for later editing).
beePluginInstance.send()
Invokes the onSend callback function. The application will pass to the function a ready-to-send HTML file.
beePluginInstance. toggleMergeTagsPreview()
Controls the visibility of sample content for merge tags in the message editing portion of the builder.
