    response template is associated with a table and can be configured to include field variables from that table. You can use a condition builder to specify the conditions that a Legal Content Review request must meet for the template to be usable through the configured channels. For example, you can define a condition to enable response
    templates only for Legal Content Review requests of type marketing presentation.

    present the response message to a user quickly.
