Enrich from file without reconcilliation

I am wanting to send an email which contains content data from a file, this data is generic i.e. it doesn't relate to a specific profile, it is purely email content. I think this can be done using the API, but I am trying to find a way to do it with a Load File in the first instance if possible.

 

1. I want to run a query that finds the people the email is going to go to.

2. Load a file with the additional data.

3. Enrich each email address with the additional data

4. Send email with the additional data

 

The issue I am facing is that I have to reconcile the load file data to the profile, but there is no reconciliation as the data is generic for all profiles, I simple want to append the data to the temporary resource so I can use the content inside the email.

 

Is there a way to do this?

 

I thought I had a fallback method of creating a table that has the data contained inside it, so the load file updates the table with the data to be used in the email, and then I simply use the data from that table inside the email content. But it seems like I can't keep a table of data inside Campaign that can then be used within an email, without it being linked to a profile, which means I have the same issue of reconciliation.

@michaelwilding, You should be able to do this with enrichment activity. Steps to get the data added to each profile,

 

  • Load the file data and save it as an audience.
  • Have a separate workflow containing query activity to pull profiles and read audience activity to read data loaded from the file.
  • Use enrichment activity with 1 cardinality link (source and destination value as 1) and add an additional data section.

    Enrichment relation definition will look like this,

@satheeskannak thank you for the reply. The file doesn't contain any profile data, just email data such as subject line, body copy, sign off etc. Can I still save it as an audience?
