Turn Images into Email Templates in Seconds (No Coding Required)!

What if I told you that you could generate a brand-compliant email template in seconds by simply uploading a screenshot? Well, thanks to the latest release in both Marketo Engage and Journey Optimizer B2B Edition, Marketing Ops can do just that.    Creating and updating branded email templates has always been a critical part of the campaign creation process. Yet, for many marketers, this process has historically been time-consuming and resource-intensive, often requiring manual HTML coding or reliance on agencies and IT teams. These traditional methods not only slow down campaign execution but also consume valuable budget and resources.    The new Image to Template feature transforms the way Marketing Ops build email templates. Instead of spending hours coding or outsourcing, you can now convert design files, such as screenshots, into brand-compliant, editable HTML templates in seconds. No coding. No waiting. Just instant results.     With drag-and-drop simplicity and both JPEG & PNG file support, email template generation has never been easier. Picture this: your content team shares a design file for a new campaign email. Normally, you’d send it to IT or an agency and wait days for a coded template. With Image to Template, you simply upload the JPEG/PNG file, apply a Brand Theme (pre-defined design guidelines) and within seconds, you have a fully editable template ready in the new Marketo Engage email designer.    Why you’ll love it:    Drag-and-drop simplicity: intuitive UI for effortless usage  JPEG and PNG support: upload common image formats with ease  Speed and efficiency: generate templates in seconds, not days  Cost savings: eliminate reliance on agencies or IT teams  Brand-compliant templates: apply pre-defined brand design guidelines     To prove just how easy this feature is to use, we put it to the test by drawing a skeleton email on a scrap of paper and uploading a picture of it. The result? A very basic but functioning email template with image and text blocks, and buttons! See for yourself...   This feature is available to all Marketo Engage and Journey Optimizer B2B Edition customers inside the new email designer at no additional cost. Start turning designs into live campaigns today by checking out this demo video below.      This feature will be available from November 7th 2025. 

Adobe Identity Migration: Domain Change & Network Configuration Reminder

As part of Marketo Engage's migration to Adobe Identity Management System (IMS), the product URL has changed and now includes a different domain: Old Domain: xxxx.marketo.comNew Domain: experience.adobe.com   Why This Matters Depending on how your VPN or proxy is configured, your network may dynamically assign a different source IP address based on the destination URL. Because the destination domain has changed, your previous routing rules may no longer apply—resulting in a different source IP being used than before the migration. This becomes a critical issue when IP restrictions are enabled, potentially blocking users from accessing Marketo Engage.   What You Should Do To ensure consistent access and avoid disruptions: Inform your IT department about the domain change. Review and adjust VPN/proxy settings so that the same source IP address (as pre-migration) is assigned when accessing: experience.adobe.com Other Marketo-related domains This will help maintain stable connectivity and avoid unexpected behavior due to IP mismatches.    Helpful Resources For more details on the domains used in the post-migration environment, please refer to documentations linked below.

REST API Double Slash Deprecation

On September 16, 2025, Adobe transitioned to a more modern hosting infrastructure for REST API URLs that leverages newer technology, adding security and scalability.   If your subscription has been using APIs with a double forward slash (//) in the URL, you should have received the following alert in Marketo Engage, with a Learn More link:   It is possible not everyone received or noticed the alert, as we recently discovered some existing API URLs have been generating 500 server errors, due to the API call itself. If you were affected by this, to resolve the error, you must modify the URL of the API call to change the double slash (//) to a single slash (/) where applicable.   Which API endpoints are impacted and should be modified?Any Marketo REST APIs that include a double slash (//) in the URL. What happens if we didn't make any changes prior to the deprecation date?Those specific APIs will fail; data synchs, Lead updates, or Campaign Triggers (depending on those specific calls) will not execute successfully. Additionally, monitoring or automation pipelines relying on those pipelines may show errors or experience delays.We didn't see or receive that alert. What action should we take?-Locate URLs by reviewing API endpoint configurations and integrations in the codebase to search for double slashes.-Normalize the impacted URLs by ensuring their calls are modified as recommended.-Apply URL sanitation logic, especially where they are dynamically generated from environment variables, base URLs, or paths.-Validate post-fix calls – use a test call to confirm that endpoints are working after the fix.How can we get guidance on this deprecation?For self-service:-Review API logs if logging is in place to look for errors (if logs are not accessible, contact Adobe Support for assistance).Should changes be made in a Sandbox environment first?Yes, it is highly recommended to make changes in a Sandbox environment (if applicable) prior to making changes in production.Once these changes are made, any ongoing failures due to double slash URLs should be resolved and processes should run back to normal. What if we have more questions, or don't want to go the self-service route?If you need assistance or have any additional questions, please reach out to your Account Representative or Adobe Support at any time.

Unlocking the Power of Marketo’s New Email Designer: AI, Dark Mode, and More

Marketo’s new email editor is here—and it’s packed with features designed to make email creation smarter, faster, and more flexible than ever. In this article, we will explore what’s new to the designer and what’s coming soon. Here’s what you need to know.   ✨ AI Assistant: Smarter Email Creation The headline feature is the AI Assistant, powered by Adobe’s proprietary GenAI. This tool helps users generate everything from subject lines to images and full email content. You can tailor prompts for specific buying groups, marketing journey stages, communication strategies, and tones. Want a subject line with FOMO and an emoji? Just ask. Need content for decision-makers in an informative tone? The AI Assistant delivers. Key points: AI Assistant is currently English-only, but support for other languages is planned. You can use prebuilt prompts or customize your own. Text settings allow for deep personalization by audience, journey stage, and tone. Image generation is available, but still a bit glitchy—best results come from uploading branded PDFs or reference content.   🌑 Dark Mode: Modern, Customizable Previews Dark mode is now available at both the email and module level. With a simple toggle, you can preview how your email will look in dark mode across different clients. You can even customize images and certain modules for dark mode-specific styling. Tips: Not all email clients support dark mode (Yahoo, AOL, etc.), and some (like Gmail, Outlook) may force their own styling. You can render previews across clients and send proofs to tools like Litmus for full compatibility checks.   🛠️️ Coming Soon: Streamlined Collaboration and Enhanced Reporting Marketo’s new email designer is evolving rapidly, with several exciting features on the horizon. Soon, marketers will be able to tag team members directly within the editor, making collaboration and review cycles faster and more transparent. Enhanced reporting is also in the works, ensuring that emails created in the new editor will be easier to track and analyze within campaign dashboards. Additionally, ongoing improvements to template imports and URL handling will help reduce errors and streamline the migration process. As these updates roll out, marketers can look forward to a more efficient, connected, and data-driven email creation experience.   Final Thoughts Marketo’s new email editor is a leap forward for teams looking to streamline email creation and leverage AI. While some features are still evolving, the combination of smart content generation, dark mode, and flexible templates makes it a compelling choice for many organizations. As always, test thoroughly, train your team, and choose email processes that fit your customer’s needs.
