Hi community,

 

We have just received question from client if they can create email template in Creatio for Marketing purposes and if they can lock/secure the content of the email with password or design it in the way that it can't be forwarded. 

 

They are interested in simple solution. Thank you in advance.

Hello,
 

Unfortunately, no OOTB functionality allows locking or securing the content of an email. However, we suggest the following alternatives that could address your requirements:
 

Dynamic Content Rules:
You can configure dynamic content rules within Email Designer. These rules allow you to define conditions for displaying specific blocks of content to different recipient segments. While this does not directly secure the content, it provides controlled visibility based on set criteria.
 

Link with Validation:
Another option is to send a link within the email that redirects recipients to a secure content page. You can add a password validation mechanism on that page to restrict access to the content.
 

Additionally, we have created a task for our R&D team to evaluate this functionality and consider adding a feature for securing email content in future releases. Your request to prioritize this task has been linked to this task.

Best regards,
Antonii.

Hi Antonii,

 

Thank you for the answer and providing possible alternative solutions.

 

Best regards,

Hi Team,

 

I created and tested campaigns in lower environment and migrated them to upper environment. I have been able to map campaign record and flow in upper environment; but when I trigger the campaign in upper enviorment, it is not picking up the audience at all. To check if it's a campaign filter issue, I removed all the filters so that campaign picks up the entire contact list; but the problem still persisted. What can be done to resolve this issue? Thanks for your help!

Hello!
 

We have consulted with our R&D team and due to the fact that the process of campaign transfer is technically very complex and involves many interdependent elements, the recommended procedure is to create campaigns directly on the production environment. At the moment, the system does not support the full transfer of campaigns between two sites. 

We have already submitted a request to our R&D team and they are reviewing the possibility of introducing improvements to the logic of transferring campaigns in future versions of Creatio.

Best regards, 
Anton

Hi, everyone!

 

I have a task for updating EventTarget status and some other fields triggered by event in external system via integration. And I'm looking for the simplest way how to do that. Is is possible to update data with help of posting json request to GeneratedObjectWebFormService.svc/SaveWebFormObjectData? Or is there any other not very complicated way how one can do that?

 

Thank you!

Easiest way is to use Creatio's webhooks. Look up webhooks in the Academy. They only do inserts, not updates, but you can create an object that is where the webhook for your case gets added, then have that trigger a process that locates and updates the needed record (and then deletes the webhook created record)

I have a campaign node that sends an email which then connects to two outcomes. The transition lines have a short delay and then one has "email clicked" ticked and one has "email opened".

 

I am finding that my audience will go down the path of email clicked if they click on the link, but anyone who just opens the email without clicking remains participating in the email stage and does not progress down the "email opened" path.

 

My question is, is there a default delay in determining if a user did not click a link? For instance, will the campaign wait for a day before assuming that user is not going to click and move them down the path? Or do I need to refine my criteria?

Hello,

 

To address your question about the default delay and the behaviour of the campaign:

  1. Default Delay:
    • There is no fixed default delay for determining if a user did not click a link. The campaign will wait for the specified delay you set in the transition lines before evaluating the conditions (e.g., "email clicked" or "email opened").
  2. Transition Configuration:
    • Ensure that the transition lines are correctly configured with the appropriate conditions and delays. The "email opened" condition should be set to trigger after the specified delay if the email is opened but no link is clicked.
  3. Handling Non-Clickers:
    • To handle users who open the email but do not click any links, you can set a delay on the "email opened" transition line. This delay will give users time to click a link if they intend to. After the delay, the campaign will check if the email was opened and move users down the "email opened" path if no link was clicked.

Thank you for this description. From the sound of it, my campaign is set up correctly, much as described. I am finding that the timing is not always following the process as laid out. 

For instance, a node has an email send, then a line which uses a delay of 1 day to determine if a user clicks and a second line with a 2 day delay to determine if the user opens but doesn't click. Often the user will remain in the email node of the campaign step indefinitely, showing them as receiving the email but not moving on. This is confirmed in tests where I can confirm the email is opened and not clicked. Also happens if the delay is the same for either line.

Because this is not always repeatable, I am assuming that this has more to do with how the email servers process the email and feedback the information. I wonder if there is anything to learn there about how to deal with that element. Am I seeing a bug, or do I need to learn about some aspect of the system?

Curtis Fee,

The behaviour you describe doesn't seem typical. Unfortunately, without investigating the examples, it is hard to tell if this is a campaign setup issue or a bug/customization error. 

You could submit the support ticket, so the Creatio employees will be able to study the case thoroughly and provide more comprehensive answer. 

Thank you. I shall follow up with support.

Hi Community, 

 

We are looking to insert non-contact macros in email template. We have an object with two fields - rate and duration. These fields are not connected to any object and have only one record. We want to insert these two values in an email template. How can we go about it?

 

Thanks

Hello!

 

In the current version of the system, macros cannot be added from objects that are not linked to a contact or to bulk emails in the template. The object must be connected to a contact for the macros to be available. 

 

We created a request to our development department for further implementation in the next versions of the system.

Hello Community,

 

                  I’ve built a custom page in Freedom UI to display my data in both List View and Calendar View. I implemented the logic in `SCHEMA_HANDLERS` and used `crt.LoadDataRequest` to toggle between the views. The logic works fine when switching to Calendar View for the first time.

 

                              

                              

Issue: 
1] When switching from Calendar View to List View and then back to Calendar View, the data disappears.

I have to refresh the page to make the data reappear in the Calendar.

 

Regards,

Ajay Kuthe

Hello,

 

Please describe in detail how exactly this was implemented and provide screenshots of this button's settings.

Mira Dmitruk,

 

I used the 'Refresh data' action to trigger the 'crt.LoadDataRequest' and control the visibility of elements to switch between views (Calender and List).

Button Config

#Code Logic in Handler

handlers: /**SCHEMA_HANDLERS*/[{
    request: "crt.LoadDataRequest",
    handler: async (request, next) => {

 

// Check if the data source name is "ListOrCalenderView"
if (request.dataSourceName === "ListOrCalenderView") {

   // Retrieve the current view mode (Calendar or List)
   const IsCalenderView = await request.$context.IsCalenderView;

   // If the current view is not Calendar (i.e., it's List View)
   if (IsCalenderView === false) {
       // Set the Button caption to "List View"
       request.$context.ListOrCalenderView_caption = "List View";
       request.$context.IsCalenderView = true;
 // Set the ListView flag to false since we are now in Calendar view
       request.$context.IsListView = false;

   } else {
  // If the current view is Calendar, switch to List View
  request.$context.ListOrCalenderView_caption = "Calender View";   request.$context.IsCalenderView = false;
  request.$context.IsListView = true;

 }

}

 

Regards,

Ajay K
 

Mira Dmitruk,

Do you have any alternative solutions besides switching between List and Calendar views?

Hi Puneet!

Unfortunately, currently, there is no option to modify these dashboards. 

We have created an idea for our R&D team to implement this functionality in future releases.

Have a great day!

Hi,

I’m currently working with email campaigns in Creatio and facing a challenge. I need to generate more granular reports on email interactions for my client. Specifically, I’m looking for a way to track the number of clicks and email opens on a daily basis or within a specific time frame during the campaign. For example, if a campaign runs for several months, we need to see how many emails were opened and how many clicks occurred on specific days or within a given month.

 

I’ve been using the [AdCampaign] object that integrates with Google Ads and Meta Ads. It provides a granular view of daily data, such as clicks and impressions, through the [Ad campaign Daily Insights] child object. My client would like a similar capability for email data—being able to filter by specific date ranges to view detailed interaction data (opens, clicks, etc.).

 

Is there an existing table or method in Creatio that allows me to capture and report email interactions in such a granular format? Additionally, would it be possible to combine this email interaction data with the social media data (from Google Ads and Meta Ads) into a unified report that shows all interactions (clicks, opens, etc.) within the same time period?

 

I would appreciate any guidance or suggestions on how to achieve this, ideally within the marketing module of Creatio.

Hello,

 

Unfortunately, at the time, such filtration is not possible through out-of-the-box means.

We will inform our development team about such an idea so that it might be developed in the future.
