Hi @dsarnowski 👋

I've gone ahead and submitted your feature request. Thanks for making it so clear what functionality you're looking for!

I am glad someone else had a similar idea.  This is something that had kept me from using snippets more in my day-to-day workflow -- but they have been a great help for email templates, signature blocks for various purposes, and the like.

As we move from one CRM solution to another, we are losing some of the dynamic formatting we had in the old system (e.g. {{customer.name}} in a template would replace it with the Customer’s name that we have pre-configured for each customer.  We could create snippets for every customer, but a drop down field for a snippet would be a great addition!

Example would be if we type __customerName__ then a dropdown with the pre-configured customers would show up.  We click on the customer we want, and it finishes the Snippet text replacement.

Hi ​@cyber-bacon, thanks for taking the time to share your suggestion and use case! 

I can definitely understand how this would be useful, and I’ve filed your feedback with the team, including all of the details you’ve provided here.
