Dynamic Strings can be used in Custom Pages to automatically and dynamically display your Platform's Name and Colors or the logged in User's details.

This feature adds a more personalised touch to an organisation's or user's experience in the platform

Below are currently supported dynamic strings for use in your page's HTML or CSS:
