Unique URLs in emails

Hi,

I am trying to send out an email with a link to a survey in it.

The survey link is unique to each person.

So, I created a custom field in Marketo and called it 'Survey Link'

I then uploaded my list. It worked - when I go into a specific contact I can see their unique survey URL populated for the 'Survey Link' field.

I then added the '{{lead.Survey Link:default=edit me}}' token in the email.

It's not working when I send myself a sample. What am I doing wrong?

Did you enter your email address in the "Send To:" field of the send sample window? If so, that will only send the default email to yourself. Instead, either add yourself as a lead and select your email under "Lead:" or select another lead with the survey link populated and enter their email in "Lead:". This allows you to preview the email as if you were that lead with populated tokens.

Hi! Thanks for getting back to me. I chose a lead from the drop down.

And did that lead have the survey link field populated? And the sample email sent to you still did not have the token?
