Testing Your Emails
UpdatedAfter you create your first email, send yourself a test before activating your campaign.
Are you using Design Studio to create your email?
Are you on a trial?
If you’re on a trial, you’re allowed a limited number of test emails per day.
For both campaigns and broadcasts, you can send test messages to make sure everything renders properly.
- Click Send test… in the top right of your email.
- Enter up to 25 email addresses. Separate multiple email addresses with commas.
- Choose whether or not to include “[TEST]” in the subject line.
- If your email contains liquid, choose a person from the Sample Data panel who you want represented in the test send.
- Click Send test.
For event triggered campaigns, you will only be able to test with users who already performed the event. If they haven’t, you’ll see an error that “event” or “event.DATA_NAME” is missing in the “Preview” tab.
Test emails only send to the addresses you specify
Don’t worry, the email will only send to the address you’ve specified; the customer’s attributes you’re merging in are just for testing purposes. Any email addresses set in the BCC or Fake BCC fields will not receive a test message.
