Email Cloud Content

The Personalization Manager Email Cloud Content app lets you personalize email communications for each contact that is linked to the same email address using Eloqua Custom Object data field merges for the current record that is being processed.

App Configuration

Step 1: Add the Cloud Content to Your Email

Within the Eloqua email editor, drag the Cloud Content design component onto your email asset. Click Browse and select the Personalization Manager app.

Click the Configure button to configure your Cloud Content settings.

Step 2: Configure Cloud Content Settings

Use the search area below to search for your Personalization Manager configuration and associated Eloqua campaign. This is the descriptive name you assigned in Step 3 of Record Selection.

Configuration Note

Once you have saved your configuration you will no longer be able to change your linked Personalization Manager Cloud Action.

Use the rich text editor to create the content that should be added to your email. You can personalize this content with Eloqua Custom Object Fields by dragging the field merges into the editor. Additionally, you can add roll-up merge fields or formula fields by selecting either category in the 'Select Source' dropdown. To add a dynamic link, click the () button and then the () icon and select you link from the list.

To remove a field merge, click the X.

When finished, click the Save button to save your Cloud Content configuration.

For additional information related to using Roll-up fields, see our page Roll-up and Roll-up Grouping

Personalization Tester

The Personalization Tester allows you to send a test email to yourself or others to see how your Personalization Manager email Cloud Content will appear.

Step 1: Open the Personalization Tester

To access the Personalization Tester, configure the Cloud Content on your Email. Note: testing landing page content is not supported at this time. At the bottom of the Cloud Content, click the green 'Launch Personalization Tester' button. If the button is disabled, your campaign needs to first be deactivated before launching testing.

Step 2: Select Send To Contact

Enter the email address where you wish the test email to be sent. This is likely your own email address or someone else from your team. Then, click 'Next'.

Step 3: Specify Test Records

Enter the email address of the Eloqua contact that should be used for testing their mapped CDO records. Optionally, you may select a limit for the maximum number of emails to send. The tester will only send up to the maximum specified, even if the configuration would otherwise send more. Then, click 'Next'.

Step 4: Review and Run Test

Review your test configuration and make any changes necessary by clicking 'Prev' to return to previous steps. If your test configuration is correct, click 'Run Test'. Please note, if a test is already in progress, you must wait for it to finish processing before starting another.

Step 5: Results

You should receive your test email(s) in just a few moments, followed by a summary email detailing the results of the test. If your test results were not as expected, return to your campaign and review the Personalization Manager Action and Decision steps, as well as the email and Cloud Content to ensure they have all been configured correctly.
