Custom Field Sync Support

We support the syncing of Custom Fields for Sailthru through our Custom Field Sync feature, you can set this up via the Custom Field Mapping button when setting up the integration.

Sending Emails to Sailthru

Once you've activated your Sailthru integration within Gleam you will need to include a Subscribe action in your campaign.

This subscribe action can contain the name of the list you want to send subscribers to, please be aware that this list must exist within Sailthru already.

Testing Your Sailthru Integration

In order to test if emails successfully send to Sailthru you need to do the following:

  • Have a competition created with a Subscribe action
  • Ensure that this action is linked to an existing list in Sailthru
  • Enter the action manually from your competition dashboard
  • The action will become invalidated (since we automatically invalidate admin actions)
  • Go to the Actions tab for that competition, then make your action valid
  • It should appear in Sailthru within a few minutes
