How to send Email and SMS over http

Avatar

Level 3

Hi

I want to send Email and SMS over http in Adobe Campaign. Beacuse the Email and SMS vendor in our place only support HTTP and the API is private.

Is there a way to to do that?

What I think is as follow( but it will failed and the JavaScript of Connector was not called):

(1) create a new "External Account" with the next general configuration

          Type:  Routing

          Channel: Email

          Delivery mode: External

(2) Write a JavaScrpt Connector and set it to the "Connector" of the my "External Account"

Hi,

Out of the box, it is not possible to send emails and SMS over http. This is not the case with most providers.

You can develop a JS connector of your own but this is not advised nor supported by Adobe.

Hope this helps,

Florent.

Hi Florent:

Thanks for you reply.

Yes. If Adobe Campaign support send email by my own JS connector, I can write a connector to send emaill over http.

But the next issue I meet.

(1) If I set the External Account with ["Channel" = "Email"] and ["Delivery mode" = "Bulk delivery"], I cannot set the JS Connector to it.

(2) If I set the External Account with ["Channel" = "Email"] and ["Delivery mode" = "external"], I can set the JS Connector to it,  but the JS connector was not execute when I send a email.

Would you like to tell me how to configuration a Email External Account to specify a JS connector.

Best regards.

Hi,

Just to confirm do you mean over http not https ?

If it a communication over http and your vendor support SMPP protocol, you can use OOTB generic SMPP connector for SMS at-least.

Hi Ankur :

Thanks for your reply.

Yes, I want to send SMS and Email over http not https

In our place, SMPP and SMTP  is always not support by the SMS and Email Vendor.

Do we have a good way to send SMS and Email not over SMPP and SMTP?

Thank you.

Best regards.
