If your message is already live, then the Subject and From fields are read-only. All settings are required, but some may already be filled out to match your message settings if you made them already. The following settings and information are provided here. The Send new marketing email dialog opens. If errors are found, correct them and try again until your message passes the check. Select Check for errors on the command bar to make sure your message is ready to send. Always be sure to choose a meaningful name before selecting Send now. The name is especially important because this name will also be applied to the segment and customer journey created by this feature. Be sure to include all the required elements and to set all required fields, including a Subject and a Name, and save the message. Your message must still pass the standard error check, and must therefore include all the standard required content (including a subject, a subscription-center link, your organization's physical post address, and valid to and from addresses).Ĭreate a marketing email message as usual.That means you can have just one hop (period) in your dynamic expressions, so for example, isn't. Your message can include dynamic expressions, but you can't use relations.
You can send to a maximum of 30 contacts, selected one at a time (as with a static segment).Requirements and limits of the send-now featureĬompared to the standard procedure for sending marketing emails, in which you manually set up a segment and customer journey to send a message you've already designed, the send-now feature adds a few limitations. Both the segment and the journey that are generated by this feature are easy to identify because Dynamics 365 Marketing assigns them the same name as the email message that generated them. After this, you can open the generated customer journey to view results and insights as usual. The journey goes live automatically and starts sending right away. In the background, Dynamics 365 Marketing creates a static segment to contain your recipients and a customer journey preconfigured to send your message to that segment. In this situation, use the send now feature, which lets you design an email as usual and then just select Send now to choose your recipients and deliver the message. But sometimes, when all you want to do is write a quick email and send it to a few specific recipients, all of these extra components and capabilities can just get in the way. Dynamics 365 Marketing provides a flexible and powerful framework for designing interactive email campaigns comprised of target segments, marketing email messages, customer-journey automation, and more.
