# Support macros: saved replies

Templates from quackback.io/templates. The first four close the loop on feedback: use them every time a request moves. Variables in {curly braces} are the ones Quackback macros fill in: {firstName}, {lastName}, {email} and {conversationTitle}. Replace everything in [brackets].
