Hi,
Right now the only way to edit transactional emails template is by hand in the admin, one template and one store at a time. For agencies and merchants with several stores, that means:
- No version control. Template changes can’t be tracked, reviewed, or rolled back like theme code.
- No automation. We can’t generate + deploy locally implemented templates, we can’t deploy the same template update to several stores or include it in a CI/CD pipeline.
- Error-prone copy-pasting. Keeping branding and Liquid logic consistent across stores and locales is slow and easy to get wrong.
- No staging workflow. Changes can’t be tested on a development store and then pushed to production.
Themes and many other store resources can already be managed through the API.
Email templates are one of the last big pieces that still have to be edited by hand.
