Sections & conditional rendering

Lets a region of the canvas appear in the email only when a condition you set is true - for example, only showing a “top performers” block when there is one.

Section conditions panel, empty state, explaining that sections render only when their condition is true

Steps

Section titled “Steps”
  1. On the Design canvas, marquee-select the cells you want to group (click and drag a selection box around them).
  2. With the cells selected, choose Group into section from the selection menu. The grouped cells get a visible section frame on the canvas.
  3. Open the Conditions tab in the data-scope rail and select the new section.
  4. Build the condition: pick a Qlik measure or dimension, a comparator, and a value to compare against - the same rule-builder style used for send rules.
  5. Save. When the report runs, KPImailer evaluates the condition against live data; the section appears in the email only if it’s true, and is skipped entirely otherwise.

Worked example

Section titled “Worked example”

A regional sales report includes a “Needs attention” block listing underperforming stores. The author marquee-selects that block, groups it into a section, and sets its condition to Sales vs target is less than 90%. Most weeks the block is empty and the section is hidden automatically; in a slow week it appears with the relevant stores listed.
