Hello, I have a question related to emails in nurture programs. Even if i add the emails into the stream, the emails will only go out if i approve the draft. Is that correct? Thank you  

hi all, so sorry, i have read similar on this but it doesn't specifically apply. So, i'm trying to create 1. a batch campaign for all inactive users (this will be a one off but have subsequent emails to notify them their account will expire).  2. then a triggered campaign for when users become inactive. 3. a campaign to let people know that they're active users again. i have built 2 smartlists in the db already, one has active users using api data (based on a specific criteria) and then the inactive users sl is just: is a member but is not a member of the active users SL. the batch campaign is the easy one and i think is just about there before i start testing. just wondering if anyone can help with the triggered campaign plus the one where they reactivate (at different stages - might be at three  weeks, might be two, might be one). i'm just not sure what trigger to use, entry on the inactive smartlist would be the perfect trigger but im not

Hello all, We are building segments in our database.  When creating one of our segments, I see that we are missing a salesforce filter (filter is "Has Account Relationship").  It's odd because the filter is available in smart lists but not in segments. I have checked salesforce permissions and the object sync and all looks good.  Does anyone why segments may not be able to pull in certain filters?   Thanks!

Hi all,Until recently, we have been pulling Google Analytics data such as campaign, source, keyword, referrer, etc out of the GA cookie to add to our SFDC leads. A few weeks ago, we upgrated to Universal GA code.. which no longer uses the cookie we were mining data from.. so that solution is kaput. I was wondering if the Munchkin cookie can provide similar data. I know that some of this data such as referrer exists.. has anyone seen such an implementation to pull the data? Thanks,pete

Hi Team,   I've noticed that the 'Interactive Webinars' option is not visible when attempting to create a webinar on my instance, despite having the capability to add users. Could this be due to a subscription limitation, or is there a potential issue? I want to ensure I'm not overlooking something in the process.   TIA

I've outlined the structure of our Nurture program with three streams, each containing three emails, totaling nine emails. I've considered two scenarios: 1) Leads, regardless of their engagement, become eligible to progress to the next stream upon receiving all three emails in a stream. What are your thoughts on this approach, and do you have any suggestions for optimizing this progression strategy?2) In the case where a lead receives all three emails without demonstrating engagement, I plan to send personalized emails to understand their interests better. How can we enhance these customized emails to effectively uncover their needs and provide a more tailored experience? I'm open to any ideas or insights you may have on refining these strategies.

Hi, We are looking into ways of reporting on internal staff members and the number of our events they have spoken at. As part of this project we're looking into whether Marketo could be used - one theory floated was adding a new member status to our Event Program channel called 'internal-speaker', as we don't tend to report on the attendance of internal attendees anyway.  I wondered if anyone else has created any similar reports/has any ideas how we could do this? Thanks in advance.

Recently I had an issue where I could not add a link to an image in an email. Everytime, I would do it it would just not add it. I would go back in and it was like it was never there. the link didn't even appear in tests. Finally, I just logged out and logged back in and was able to make it work. The link stuck and looked good in a test. Then this morning after the email went live, I received a note from a colleague that the links in that I thought had not stuck, showed up inthe live email in red. Looking at the test and at the email in editor mode, none of that was there. But when I explored more and looked at the HTML code of the editable field, the things that were not sticking, were there... but they only showed up some of the time and in a quick check of other colleagues, it only showed up in at least one person's email. Anyone else run into anything similiar?

Dear Marketo Community,The recent email rule updates by Google and Yahoo, especially regarding the 1-Click (List) Unsubscribe, are prompting significant changes in email marketing strategies. We're re-evaluating our approach and would love to hear some feed back from you guys. Currently, our unsubscribe mechanism directs users to a confirmation form. However, the new emphasis on the "post" list-unsubscribe option (over the "mailto" option) suggests a move towards a more streamlined, 1-click process. After reading the article: The main contention for me is whether they are referring to your email footer for “1-click” unsubscribe, or their built in features where users in Gmail can select “unsubscribe” and pass that back to our Marketo instance to automatically unsubscribe people. If it is the built-in feature within Gmail itself, does this mean we do not have to change our current unsubscribe process as mentioned above? Any suggestions and thoughts on this topic would be

Hi there! I'm doing a review of an email nurture series we set up a few years back and within the last year, the open rates have been very good for the most past but our click rates throughout the series are pretty low. The series is all text-based emails - curious if anyone has thoughts on if using a template might be good to test for better click rates? Or if anyone has tips on how to improve click rates? We're clearly getting people to open the email but the CTA isn't working. Thanks!!

Hi, In the engagement program that I'm running, I notice many people are exhausting the stream content early. The stream has 8 emails in a nested program, but many people are exhausting the content yet they've only received the first email. Does anyone know why Marketo is marking them as exhausted?  Happy to provide more context. Thanks!

We’ve had the ping of death. The zip bomb. Now meet the Extinction Level Email™: an otherwise simple email that slows Outlook for Windows to a crawl just by being in the Inbox, even if it’s not being viewed!   First, kudos to a client for patiently proving the symptoms were real, despite our skepticism. And thanks to the spirits that led another agency to create the offending template, allowing us to get credit for debugging but none of the blame.😊   The client was eager for a rebrand, having finally bought a domain from a longtime squatter. The emails were ready: ExampleNetCo is now simply Example. An agency built out a slick new template.   Then everything broke loose: test emails made Outlook for Windows (both Outlook 2019 and the latest 365) slow to a crawl. Selecting messages in the Inbox was like being stuck in a glue trap. Didn’t matter whether you were looking at the rebranded emails: as long as they were in the Inbox folder, Out

Hi,We are looking to import 3rd party data to Marketo for some analysis. Could you suggest best approach to import 3rd part data to Marketo or best approach for data managementWe are aware of having custom objects created or associate data at lead/company level.Looking for a good data management approach if you could suggest. Many thanks.Babu 

⚠️ The claims made in this post are not technically reliable in the current version of Marketo Engage. Please read responses and clarifications from other users.   A teammate had suggested using dynamic testimonials on a landing page based on the nurture product email that person had opened. It was a 3 series email nurture, each email a different product promotion. They would then be able to click in each email over to the landing page. So when building the segmentations for the dynamic content on the LP I noticed its easier with data points like Industry or Job Title, but not so much for activities like opened email or clicked in email. I also needed the person to move through the segments as they opened the each unique email and I needed the LP to update quickly because if they clicked in the specific product email to the LP I would want the testimonial to be relevant to the product email. So I:   Created three email assets for three different products all wit

Hi all,I would like to ask if anyone has some experience in working with Vertify to connect Marketo with CRM (not SFDC and D365)? We will have a project to connect our current Marketo instance to ZOHO via the Vertify team, not sure if anyone has worked with Vertify. I would like to know about the experience of working with the Vertify team and the connector product itself, and if anyone has a chance to know what needs to be prepared before the connecting that would be much appreciated, thanks a lot! Best regards,Ciara

Now that users are prevented from using/accessing anonymous data through standard marketing automation, is it possible with RTP so get access to data? If you have RTP is there anyway to get access through API via script or give apps in insight store access to it. Anonymous data is so valuable, it makes no sense how you can shut users off from it and only allow use of it within their system. Anyone know a way to get access to it?

I'm utilizing the Get Lead Activies access point and am receiving variations of the data versus the Marketo UI views. Below is some of my code - I am incrementing by 15 days at a time in case the data size is an issue. act = mc.execute(method='get_lead_activities', activityTypeIds=['3', '6', '7', '8', '9', '10', '11', '27'], sinceDatetime='2022-12-01', untilDatetime='2022-12-15')   It had been working just fine until my organization wanted me to backdate more data with more columns. Backdating it has caused these issues to come up.

I am working on a form where one of the fields contains a number of checkboxes. The question instructs survey respondents to "Select your top three." Is there a way to require that people select 3 out of the 12 checkbox options in the field?

Hi there.For all new faces, I'd like to capture their acquisition program. I know I could implement this for each program individually - but I was wondering if I could do the same thing with just one global trigger campaign.My idea was as follows: But what do I put as new value? Trigger-tokens don't provide the name of the program. And {{program.name}} doesn't provide the correct name either.Any ideas? 

Hi,   I'm wanting to capture the GCLID cookie on my website then transfer that to a hidden form field within my Marketo forms, so I can get the offline conversion attribution. I have already created the hidden form, set to capture based on cookie, but I haven't figured out how to get the cookie to be stored on my website.   Below is the code I have been given to capture the GCLID on my website; however, it is written for form ID - not form name. Does anyone know how to rewrite the code or know other alternatives, so I can capture the information and send the cookie GCLID information to that hidden field and appropriate form name?   function getParam(p) { var match = RegExp('[?&]' + p + '=([^&]*)').exec(window.location.search); return match && decodeURIComponent(match[1].replace(/\+/g, ' ')); } function getExpiryRecord(value) { var expiryPeriod = 90 * 24 * 60 * 60 * 1000; // 90 day expiry in milliseconds var expiryDate = new Date().getTime() + expiryPeri

Have you ever seen this message? it appears constantly and I don't know the reason why. I'm using the Google Chrome browser any help will be appreciated  

Hello, I am getting a web services error and was provided documentation on the codes..."610" The URI in the call did not match a REST API resource type.

Help please.    Thanks,Gayane

Hi all! Is anyone noticing a very significant decrease in email engagement? Specifically open and click rates? I went from an average open rate of 49% in November to a 6% in December. The trend is continuing into January. Could it be the change in Google's email sender guidelines?

When emailing a distribution list, are you still able to track metrics on open rate, clicks, etc., for individual users? Thanks.

We currently use Survicate for surveys, including out NPS survey, which we sync the responses back to Marketo (NPS Score and NPS Comment fields), before we run the survey again in the summer I would like to set up some kind of automated reporting that will show changes to scores of those who respond again -  who scores us higher and, more importantly, whose score has gone down, so we can identify potential risks for renewal. I had a look through some of the articles and posts but can't really see a way to  either create a report showing all score changes or to create lists for "if score goes up/down add to XX list" and record the old and new score. Does anyone have a best practice way of doing this? Thanks
