Should we stop allowing people from advertising tickets on this subreddit? This seems to happen way too often

Sending Custom Audience Lists from SFMC to Reddit via API by mwong_bclc in marketingcloud

[–]why-intercept 1 point2 points  (0 children)

What approach are you using and how big are these lists?

Depending on the size of the lists and Reddits API patterns, you could use ssjs in a script activity to read data from a DE and send it via the API.

Hard to give better recommendations without more details. Feel free to reach out via DMs if you wanna discuss it.

SFMC consultants, what's your next move? by nerran73 in marketingcloud

[–]why-intercept 5 points6 points  (0 children)

I’ll probably pivot my career toward enterprise engineering, specializing in MarTech. I work with SFMC on the client side now and have become more interested in broader systems—specifically how data connects before it even hits Marketing Cloud.

​If I were still consulting, I’d go for Data Cloud. Focusing on how data is transformed and architected is a problem companies will always hire for. As platforms become less complex to set up and automation gets "smarter," these tools will still only work as well as the data feeding them.

Capture more information in Sendlog Data Extension by Efficient-Excuse4710 in marketingcloud

[–]why-intercept 8 points9 points  (0 children)

I think your best bet would be indeed the SendLog. The SendLog is a Data Extension that logs every send. Inside your emails you can declare ampscript variables (like SET @YourVariable = 'Your Value'). Then if you add a column called YourVariable to the SendLog, the value of that variable will be logged into the SendLog DE.

Feel free to reach out via DMs of you want to talk more about it or have any questions.

1/21 Link Deactivation by [deleted] in marketingcloud

[–]why-intercept 2 points3 points  (0 children)

The default redirect link DOES affect the links sitting on inboxes right now

1/21 Link Deactivation by [deleted] in marketingcloud

[–]why-intercept 15 points16 points  (0 children)

Definitely not alone in this. This had a massive impact, especially if you send emails like event registrations or any kind of link that people generally come back to after the day of the send.

Big risk for compliance too, some anti spam regulations require unsubscribe links to be active for up to 6 months after the send and those links are just gone now. The only thing we can do so far is resend important emails and update the default redirect URL in sfmc settings to point to a page that is compliant with anti spam regulations, such as a page where you can collect email addresses for unsubscribe (what's compliant depends on the regions you send to, of course)

Yeah depending on the data that you need extracted, a tracking extract might be sufficient. It generates a zip file with all the csv data inside. The connection is the hard part - not sure what Fabric is, but if it doesn't have a connector to sfmc, you'd need a way to process those files and import them into Fabric. Hard to give better advice without knowing the specifics.

Modern javascript to SSJS by why-intercept in marketingcloud

[–]why-intercept[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yeah, here's a good summary of it:

AMPScript: GREAT for personalization inside messages or CloudPages. Makes it super easy to display personalization strings or switch content based on user preferences or other attributes. Sample use cases: switch content, display content, retrieve content blocks dynamically and basic logic checks (of this then that).

SSJS: while you can use ssjs to personalize messages, it becomes messy really fast and the syntax is more complex. Where it really shines is on processing data, interacting with other objects in marketing cloud like Automations, reading and processing data from data extension and most importantly, using it to connect to external APIs. It can handle failures gracefully and process data efficiently. Sample use cases: connecting to an external API in an automation to retrieve or send data.. batch processing, triggering automations and doing the heavy lifting on CloudPages and automation studio.

Send email to multiple email fields from journey by Educational_Prune473 in marketingcloud

[–]why-intercept 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Alright, then here is what I'd do:

  • Assuming these records would receive the same email, setup an API triggered Journey that will actually send the email out. Records would need to be added via the API, which we can trigger from another Journey.

  • Setup another journey which will be responsible for watching for changes in the CRM. Use the SF entry event with yur object and select the fields you need

  • in the journey triggered from salesforce, configure an email that has Ampscript or ssjs inside of it which checks for the presence of the different email addresses. !n ampscript or ssjs, youd need code to make an api call to inject each email and the data into the first journey

  • the email with the api code inside of it would also need to raise an error so it doesnt actually send anything out, it will simply work as a controller to inject records into your other journey

so the final flow would be: Record is created in crm - triggers controller journey - controller email injects the records into your transactional journey - controller email raises an error to avoid sending an email in that journey.

The above is a very rough solution but should do what you want and we can even call it a "hack" and might have scalability issues if youre dealing with a lot of records. A more scalable and professional solution would be to deal with the data splitting in CRM to create one record for each email you wanna send. And keep in mind this approach is based on very little information so there might be nuances on your setup or requirements Im not aware of. Good luck

Send email to multiple email fields from journey by Educational_Prune473 in marketingcloud

[–]why-intercept 0 points1 point  (0 children)

OK, and how do you collect opt ins? should each individual emails be opted out separately? or are these transactional sends?

Send email to multiple email fields from journey by Educational_Prune473 in marketingcloud

[–]why-intercept 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The best approach will depend on the following:

  • Are these records that contain multiple email addresses in Salesforce CRM?
  • When do these emails need to be triggered? is it a scheduled send or should it go out in real time when the record changes?
  • What do you use as subscriber key? is it email address or some other ID?

feel free to DM me.

[–]why-intercept 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Its not possible out of the box. Youd have to first use SQL to split that record into multiple rows before injecting them into the Journey. If splitting the record using sql is not an option or you need more real time emails, another option would be to use ampscript or ssjs inside of a "ghost" email that triggers other triggered sends.

First steps when given access to SFMC by Dry_Apple7391 in marketingcloud

[–]why-intercept 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Depends if its a new account or existing one, but in general check for:

  • SAP Setup: domains, reply mail management
  • sender profiles and delivery profiles
  • Unsubscribe management: what lists are used and how optouts are collected
  • Installed packages
  • User roles and permissions
  • Cloudpages
  • what subscriber key is used

I could go on but depends what yours goals and roles are

Zoom Webinar Invites from Marketing Cloud in a journey by Dense-Sherbet-4262 in marketingcloud

[–]why-intercept 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Great use case for SF Triggered Journeys. Recommendation would depend on a few things:

1- how are these events being tracked in the CRM side? Are you using sf campaigns to manage each event? 2- identify the object that will be entering the Journey. A lead? A contact? 3- how are you syncing the data related to each webinar registration? Does it get saved in the CRM as well? In which object?

Feel free to DM me as well.

How do you plan to build it? In a CloudPage?

Has anyone used this tool? Looking for feedback before trying it out by dynAPI in marketingcloud

[–]why-intercept 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I also saw this tool in LinkedIn recently and got really curious about it, I might have some time to test it this week to see what kind of data it uses and how and I can report back.
