Real Time Marketing - Email - Default Image Alt Text Using Information Stored in File in Library
In Real Time Marketing, we are able to upload images. Upon uploading, we can enter information like ALT text, description, etc. I'm not sure why our emails do not pre-populate or default image alt text to use this information? This would be very helfpul.
Example/Use Case:
Add Amp for Emails capability
Amp for Emails has been developed by Google for a few years now. It would allow users to interact with emails (make appointments, scroll through images etc) without having to visit websites. Salesforce have integrated this capability, it would be good to see it on Dynamics too.
Upon Go Live or Error Check - Ask Requirement Questions Defined by an Administrator

Clone Emails
Allow users to quickly clone emails without creating a template. We have a use case in which we need to send two versions of an email with small changes in language between each version. Creating a template from the original and then an email from that template inserts an unnecessary step.
Thank you for your feedback.
You can use the save as functionality to copy email without creating templates.
