How to Add Newsletter Content to Drip¶

This guide explains how to add your Hello Retail Newsletter Content code snippet to Drip.

Note

Use a unique campaign name for each newsletter. Hello Retail uses the campaign name as the unique ID. Reusing a name can result in duplicated products in the email.

Prerequisite¶

Before you create an auto campaign, you must create a Newsletter Content design. To learn how, click here. When your design is ready, proceed with this guide to integrate with Drip.

How to get your Hello Retail code snippet¶

Step 1: Log in to your Hello Retail account here and create an auto campaign for the product recommendations you want in the newsletter. (If you already made a design you can skip to Step 4)

Step 2: When you are logged in, navigate to: Newsletter Content > Auto campaigns.

If you already have an "Auto campaign config", click the "Edit auto campaign config" button.
If you do not have an "Auto campaign config", follow the steps below.

How to insert the Hello Retail code snippet into Drip¶

Step 1: Log in to your Drip account at https://www.getdrip.com/signin.

Step 2: In the admin, go to Campaigns and select Single emails or Email series, depending on where you want to add newsletter content.
