Before, this caused issues when using first-name tokens, since the system would end up sending the full name. Now, in Sprinthub, you can solve this problem easily, ensuring that only the first name is sent in messages to your Leads. *** TOKEN ``` {contactfield=short_firstname} ``` {% embed url="" %} **CONCLUSION** By using the “short\_firstname” token in Sprinthub, you ensure more personalized and professional communication, avoiding errors and discomfort when sending messages to your Leads. This feature optimizes the use of tokens, offering practicality and precision when working with names, reinforcing the efficiency of your campaigns and engagement with the audience. --- # Agent Instructions This documentation is published with GitBook.
