What does Email Builder actually do in the Odoo backend?

Email Builder extends the standard mail.template model with a visual drag-and-drop editor that re-uses the *mass_mailing* snippet library. Toggle /"Email Builder"/ on an email template and the normal Body tab is hidden in favor of a /Mail Body/ tab carrying the full Mass-Mailing designer. Dynamic placeholders are enabled so you can personalize per recipient. /Code reference:/ models/main.py lines 7–16 ( _inherit = "mail.template" , fields body_arch , email_editor , mailing_model_id ) and views/email_builder.xml lines 16–31 (widget mass_mailing_html with 'snippets': 'mass_mailing.email_designer_snippets' ).

Which Odoo modules does it depend on?

Only two stock Odoo modules are required: *mass_mailing* (provides the designer and snippets) and *mail* (provides mail.template ). There are no external Python dependencies and no API keys. /Code reference:/ __manifest__.py line 9: 'depends': ["mass_mailing", "mail"] . No external_dependencies entry.

Where do I find Email Builder after install?

Email Builder does not add its own menu — it extends the existing template form. Open /Settings → Technical → Email → Templates/ (or go through Mass Mailing) and on any mail.template the *"Email Builder"* toggle appears right after the /Subject/ field. /Code reference:/ views/email_builder.xml lines 9–11: with .

Is the HTML sanitized when saved?

*No.* The body field body_arch is declared with sanitize=False and translate=False . This is required so that complex Mass-Mailing snippets (with inline styles, custom CSS and layouts) survive untouched. Treat the field accordingly as a rich-text editor with full control. /Code reference:/ models/main.py line 9: body_arch = fields.Html(string='Body', translate=False, sanitize=False) .
