How to Add Newsletter Content to Drip

Here's a guide on how to add your newsletter content code snippet to Drip.

OBS: It's essential to notice that you shouldn't send more than one newsletter with the same name. Every campaign name should be unique. This is to make sure no duplicated products will be shown in your newsletters since we use the name as a unique ID for the campaign. 

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 Drip.

How to get your Hello Retail code snippet

Step 1: First, log into your Hello Retail account here and create an auto campaign for your product recommendations that should be in the newsletter. (If you already made a design you can skip to Step 4)

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

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

How to insert the Hello Retail code snippet into Drip

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

Step 2: Inside your admin, navigate to "Campaigns"  and select "Single emails" or "Email series" depending on where you want to add newsletter content.

 

 

Step 3: After selecting the email type you can edit the campaign or workflow where you want to add newsletter content.

 (click the pencil to edit a single email campaign)

 

(click the dots and click "edit" to edit a workflow) 

 (click the box of the specific mail in the flow to edit in the flow)

 Step 4: For both single emails and workflows the actual editing of the email is the same. See the video guide below that shows how to add a text block in a section and add the code snippet in that block.

Step 5: Complete the newsletter like you normally would.

Step 6: We suggest you send out a test email to make sure everything is set up as intended before sending out newsletters to others.
