Hi

Not sure if this topic was discussed. I wanted to use the email button to send email to client with field data populated in the email body. Can it be done within glide?

Otherwise you can use a link with mailto URI:

example  
mailto: [? = [& =]]  
example:  
mailto: [jsmith@example.com](mailto:jsmith@example.com)? subject = Test & body = My idea

@Robert_Petitto video in this post is a good example.

Noted and aware but I was thinking to a field item in the email body that relate to specific column.

Example, 'hello Jane. Tq for the registeration. The total charges is $120-00."

The amount is a math field calculated dependence on input by client.

You can do that. Just build a Template column like in @Robert_Petitto’s video and assign that column to the Body option in the email component.
