        "medium":"#color",
        "light":"#color",
        "lightest":"#color"
     },
     "error":{
        "darkest":"#color",
        "dark":"#color",
        "medium":"#color",
        "light":"#color",
        "lighter":"#color",
        "lightest":"#color"
     },
     "grayScale":{
        "darkest":"#color",
        "darker3":"#color",
        "darker2":"#color",
        "darker":"#color",
        "dark":"#color",
        "medium":"#color",
        "light":"#color",
        "lighter":"#color",
        "lightest":"#color"
     },
     "alert":{
        "critical":"#color",
        "major":"#color",
        "minor":"#color",
        "neutral":"#color"
     }
  }
}

Each color code is optional and specifying it will override the system default

A color is defined by a HEX color code. For example, the string #0A32E6 will produce

some _blue_ text.

Custom Messages

BioT allows to set custom messages in the different portals. For example the welcome message can be customized to welcome the user in to your custom organization portal:

Email Templates

BioT allows you to personalize the templates of emails that are sent from the platform. Discover the available templates here.

An email template is essentially an HTML file that incorporates placeholders for dynamic strings. These strings are replaced at runtime based on the recipient's locale (language and region)..

Template File

The template file should be used for::

  • The template file describes only the visual design of the email.
  • It should only contain HTML code. Text content should be added elsewhere.

Adding Text to the Email:

  • The template uses email markers to indicate where text content should be inserted.
  • These markers are variable fields enclosed by ${ at the beginning and }$ at the end.
  • BioT automatically replaces these markers with corresponding text from the locale JSON file. (See more info below)

Example

${important_message}$ in the template will be replaced by "important_message": "This is an important message" from the locale file.

Dynamic Fields

BioT supplies some dynamic fields that refer to the recipient of the message.

  • {{FIRST_NAME}} - The first name of the recipient
  • {{LAST_NAME}} - The last name of the recipient
  • {{USER_NAME}} - The user name of the recipient

You may set these in the dynamic markers in the locale JSON file to be dynamically replaced by BioT.

Example

"Hello {{FIRST_NAME}} would be replaced with "Hello Jack" in the actual email message.

Locale Files for Email Text

  • Locale files store the text content for your email messages. They use a key-value format.
  • Keys: These are alphanumeric names (letters and numbers) that uniquely identify each piece of text.
  • Values: These are the actual text strings, which can be in any language you support.
  • Multiple Locale Files: Create separate locale files for each language you want to offer. The name of the locale file should be the locale it represents, for example en-au.json for Australian English.
  • Matching Locale Files: BioT automatically selects the appropriate locale file based on the recipient's user profile. For example:
    • If a user's locale is es-es (Spanish, Spain), BioT will search for an es-es.json file.
    • If no es-es.json file exists, BioT will fall back to the default en-us.json file (English, United States).

Password Restrictions

BioT allows for custom password format validation. By default the validation is for a password:

  • Minimum length of 8 characters
  • At least 1 upper case letter
  • At least 1 lower case letter
  • At least 1 digit

You can also set:

  • Number of days that a password will expire
  • Password history reuse check length
  • Password strength level
