Transactional Emails

A Transactional Relay holds the settings the Transactional Email API sends with: which Send Integration carries the email, which Suppression Lists apply, and whether a Jump Page is used. You pass its number to the API as transactionRelayId. Sending itself is done by the API, not from this page.

Instructions

1. Click Transactional Emails in the navigation panel. The page lists your relays.
2. Click Create Transactional Relay, or open one already there by its # or its Name.
3. Enter a Name. It is required, and can be up to 200 characters.
4. Select at least one Send Integration. This is what carries the email. A warning shows if one you picked has since been deactivated.
5. Optionally add Suppression Lists. The picker is searchable and grouped, and shows each list's source and format.
6. Optionally choose a Jump Page.
7. Click Save Transactional Relay. A new relay is given its number on save.
8. Copy the Transactional Relay # with the button beside it. That number is what the API takes as transactionRelayId, and it cannot be edited.

The Relay List

• Active is a switch, and turning it off asks you to confirm first. The API rejects an inactive relay.
• Jump Page shows On or Off.
• Created On is in your account time zone. Hover the clock in the header to see which one.
• The toolbar has search, CSV export and print, plus Show Active, Show Inactive and Show All.
