Dynamic links in Email

Hi there,

 

I try to create smart email campaign with dynamic link.

 

As an example: online.fleetcor.de/etede?source="dynamic text"

 

So I created some token 

and I also use the token for a link:

After that I sent sample of email to myself. It works fine only on web version. 

Here is a short video: monosnap.com/file/o9V3pYyuw0Io362SYCwhZWjO2Cycaz

 

Could you please help me to resolve the issue?

If you're outputting a part of link via velocity, you should include "mktNoTrack" class in the <a> tag in HTML (reference snapshot below). Only the links that are emitted completely (<a> through </a>) through the velocity token can be tracked for click activities in Marketo. You'd need to disable the tracking in-case you're outputting only a part of link through the velocity script, else the URLs will be malformed.

There’s another mistake here (in addition to what Darshil mentions about such partial links not working unless you mark them as notrack):

 

  • You’re arbitrarily using the 0th Opportunity in the list. Lists must be assumed to be unordered, so you must apply a sort ($sorter.sort) to the List, or iterate over the list and do addtional filtering, to know which one you’re using.

Also, I assume from the token name that the value is already URL-encoded. Is that the case, and can you provide an example value?
