Aborting content creation
You may want the content creation process to be aborted in certain situations; for example,
when a template script fails to load remote content. To abort the content creation process, you
may raise a fatal error from within a script in the template; see "fatalError(message)" on
page1138.
When a script calls this function in Preview mode, the script that triggers it is marked with an
error icon in the Scripts pane, and the given message is displayed in a hint.
When generating output from the Designer, the Designer will log the error and display an error
dialog with the given message. Content creation is aborted.
When generating output from Workflow, the entire job fails. Workflow will log the error and
execute any follow-up actions that are defined in the On Error tab of the respective OL Connect
Content Creation task (All in One, Create Email Content, Create Print Content, Create Preview
PDF, and Create Web Content ). For more information about how to set up follow-up actions,
see Using the On Error tab in the Workflow Help.

links were clicked and by who. Typically this information is available via an online
dashboard.
l Most ESPs provide Bounce Management options. They will stop sending messages to
addresses that return a hard bounce and retry for soft bounces before removing that
