Email Validations

Validation checks your addresses with a provider before you send to them, so invalid and risky ones can be segmented out instead of bouncing. Attach an integration to a Contact List and it validates new contacts within the hour and re-checks existing ones on the interval you set.

Instructions

1. Navigate to Email Validations > Create Integration. Enter a name.
2. Set Validation Interval: OnceOnly (validate once), or a recurring frequency (e.g., every 30, 60, 90 days).
3. Enter your API Key and Provider List ID from your EmailOversight account.
4. Click Create, then Run Test to verify the integration works.
5. Add validation to a Contact List: open a Contact List > under Email Validations > click Add Email Validation > select your integration. Toggle Auto-Validate for automatic runs — new emails are validated within the hour, and existing emails are re-evaluated on the selected Validation Interval frequency.
6. Run validations: Validate All Emails (validates everything regardless of last validation date) or Validate Emails Due (only validates new or overdue contacts). Progress shown on button; click to cancel.
7. Use validated data in Segments with the Email Validations filter to send only to verified addresses.
