Adding the Cancellation Reason to Your Templates
To display the cancellation reason in your cancellation emails:

- Add the following variable where you want the reason to appear:
{!M.Meeting.CancellationReason}
- Repeat for your Host - Meeting cancelled template
- Save your changes
How It Works
- If a reason was provided: The email will show a localized label followed by the reason. For example:
Cancellation Reason: Had to reschedule due to conflict - If no reason was provided: Nothing is displayed
The label is automatically translated based on the recipient's language:
| Language | Label |
|---|---|
| English | Cancellation Reason |
| German | Stornierungsgrund |
| French | Motif d'annulation |
| Spanish | Motivo de cancelación |
| Dutch | Reden voor annulering |
| Italian | Motivo dell'annullamento |
Example Template

Hi {!M.Guest.Fullname},
Your {!M.Meeting.Name} with {!M.Host.Fullname} at {!M.Meeting.StartTime} on {!M.Meeting.StartDate} has been cancelled.{!M.Meeting.CancellationReason}
Best regards,
{!M.Host.Fullname}
