How can I display a specific collection in an email template using liquid?

Hi,

Do you plan on doing so in Shopify Notification emails, Shopify Marketing emails or other email apps, such as Klaviyo or Mailchimp?

  1. In regards to Shopify Notification emails, it looks like it won`t be possible, as there are no variables for products or collections available to use (except for the items in the order the customer placed):

  1. You can add up to 9 products to the email via Shopify → Marketing → Shopify email. Choose your template and you will see an option to add Product. Click and choose up to 9.

  2. Other way of doing so is to get an app for email sending, but then, again, there usually is a limit on how many products you can add.

Hope this helps.
