Adding Account # to an external Url for email campaign

Hi All,

We are trying to start a campaign in which a customer who has a particular promotion will be flagged to get an email. The email will contain a URL to an external site but we want to add the customers account number to the end of the url.

Can this be done??

Thanks

Hi andrewd10864294 ,

In order to accomplish this, please

  • go to the source of your HTML
  • Locate the href attribute of <a> tag where you wish to pass the account number.
  • Say you have an attribute @accountNumber inside recipient schema which you wish to pass inside the URL. You can do something like
    <a href="http://www.adobe.com/employee/<%= recipient.accountNumber %>">MyURL</a>

Hope this helps.

Regards,
Vipul

Hi,

If you are using Adobe Standard, the link below would help you for personalizing urls.

Thanks Rajesh, what version of campaign is this referring to?

We are using 6.1.1

That was for Adobe Standard version. For classic version (6.1.1 or 7), concepts should remain the same. I will check and let you know.
