Overview

A triggered email is a message that Marketing Cloud sends to an individual subscriber in response to a subscriber action. For example, sending a confirmation message after a customer makes a purchase is a triggered email.

Send Classifications

When you define a triggered email interaction, you select a send classification. A send classification lets you define parameters for an email job in a central location and reuse those parameters for multiple email send definitions.

Destination Management

You can select a subscriber list for the triggered send when you create the triggered email interaction. When a subscriber who isn’t already on the selected list triggers the interaction, you can add the subscriber to the list. When a subscriber who is already on the selected list triggers the interaction, you can update subscriber information.

Send Options

When you create a triggered email interaction, choose whether to track links in the email or suppress triggered send activity from reports. Use these options to prevent test triggered sends from affecting tracking.

List Detective

When a subscriber triggers an email, List Detective scans the email address. List Detective protects deliverability by identifying bad or flagged email addresses. If an email address is identified as bad, the system doesn’t send the email message, so the send doesn’t appear in your tracking.

Priority

Choose the priority of triggered sends. Set this option for a triggered send definition and all emails sent using that triggered send definition receive the assigned priority.

Retention Policy Support for Triggered Sends

When using data extensions as triggered send sources, build them using a Triggered Send Source data extension template. When a triggering API call is made, a row is added to the data extension for each recipient contained in the call. The triggering API call must include all required fields of the data extension that don't have a default value.
