How to Add Newsletter Content to Omnisend
Here's a simple guide on how to add your newsletter content code snippet to Omnisend.
OBS: It's essential to notice that you shouldn't send more than one newsletter within the same day. Every campaign or broadcast name should be unique. This is to make sure no duplicated products will be shown in your newsletters since we use the date as a unique ID for the products.
Prerequisite
It is important to note here that before being able to create an auto campaign, you must have created a design for the newsletter content first. To learn about how to do so, click here. When you have your design ready, then feel free to proceed with this guide to integrate with Omnisend.
How to get your Hello Retail code snippet
