📗 HTML / Raw / Preview Tabs
This article explains the HTML, Raw, and Preview tabs available when creating templates using Parsio’s template-based parser.
These tabs show different representations of the same email and help you extract data more effectively.
HTML tab
The HTML tab displays the rendered version of the email, similar to how it appears in an email client.
This is the main tab used for template creation. It allows you to:
Visually highlight the data you want to extract
Create and edit fields directly from the email content
Use this tab for most data extraction tasks.
Raw tab
The Raw tab shows the email source code.
This view is useful when you need to extract data that is not visible in the rendered email, such as:
Image URLs
HTML tag attributes
Hidden metadata
Links or values embedded in HTML elements
You can create fields from the Raw view when the required data is not accessible in the HTML tab.
Preview tab
The Preview tab is read-only.
It:
Displays the email exactly as it would appear in an email client
Does not allow creating or editing fields
Does not show field highlights
Use this tab to visually verify the email content without modifying your template.
