How to make your template dynamic

Dynamic parameters are what make Orshot templates powerful — the same design can produce thousands of variations by changing values at render time.

To get there: open your template from Your Templates on the dashboard — it opens in Orshot Studio.

The quick way: right on the canvas#

Select any layer — a small pill appears under it. Toggle it on and edit the parameter ID right there:

That's it — the layer is now dynamic.

Full options: the API tab#

For everything else (usage examples, advanced options), select the layer and open the API tab in the right panel:

1. Turn on Parameterize

2. Give it a clear, descriptive ID — like headline, userName, or productImage

Use the parameters#

The API tab shows ready-to-copy usage for the selected layer — including dynamic style parameters like headline.color and headline.fontSize, so you can change styling per render, not just content:

The same parameters appear automatically as fields in Quick Connect and the Playground, and as mappable fields in Zapier, Make, and other integrations.
