How to Use Conditional Text in Document Generation

With Document Studio, you can mark specific paragraphs or sections of your document as conditional content. This means that the content will only be included in the generated document if a certain condition is met. This is useful if you want to include different content in your document based on user's answers that may come from a Google Form or a Google Sheet.

For instance, if the user's country is the United States, you can include a paragraph about US tax laws. If the user has selected their country as Japan, you may show the text written in Japanese and hide the English text.

Conditional Content is currently supported in Google Documents and Email Templates only.
