Workflow 2019.2 Improvements
New email plugins
Several new email related Workflow plugins have been created to improve the email sending
performance by simplifying integration with external Email Service Providers (ESP). The
original Create Email Content renders email messages and sends these over SMTP in a single
run. This limits use to the slower SMTP protocol, which becomes a bottleneck when larger
batches are processed.
The new Render Email Content plugin for Workflow prepares messages within the Connect
File Store. This allows ESP specific plugins to later pickup the content and send it via their
faster Web APIs. Sending email via ESPs also brings the advantage of open rate tracking, click
through tracking and bounce handling all being presented in online dashboards.
Note
The Render Email Content plugin works only under PlanetPress Connect Workflows
that are licensed for sending emails. It is not available for users with Demo, Test or
Reseller licenses.
The associated Download EML Messages plugin retrieves the message body and
attachments created by the Render Email Content plugin.
