Email Builder FTP folder. This is a security measure to insure deployment recipient list accuracy.
A. If the file does not exist in the system already (A file with the same name has not been previously used), then the file will be moved to an internal location, no longer visible on the user’s FTP folder. An email will be sent to a pre determined client email address with a notification of the successful transfer.
B. If the file already exists internally, then the file will be picked up and deleted. It will no longer be visible on the user’s FTP folder. An email will be sent to a pre determined client email address with a notification of the failure.
Once a list is uploaded to the FTP folder and transfers successful, the list can be assigned to a deployment via the
Deployment Add Audience API.
