Prevent or detect bot email clicks

Hello,

Currently, we are experiencing a situation where we see a lot of repeat email clicks in the tracking log table. Ideally, we'd like to preemptively blacklist these types of interactions so that they do not skew our statistics.

 

Is there any method available in AC to detect and purge these types of clicks on emails?

 

Thanks in advance.

Hi,

 

They get deduped in the [indicators/@recipientClick] (key is tracking broadlog id) and [indicators/@personClick] (key is tracking source id) delivery fields.

You can have the ootb 'deliveryIndicators' workflow delete duplicates from the trackingLog table after aggregating them (or 'tracking' workflow for before) if they're causing problems.

 

Thanks,

-Jon
