Guardian checks
Misplaced variables
Occasionally, content will be copied between email types (campaign <> loops <> transactional) and certain types of dynamic content may not be supported. Instead of stripping the variables or blocking the paste, Guardian flags the errors so you can make sure the content is adjusted and formatted properly for the email type.Save states
We transparently poll for the last saved checkpoint and keep you updated. This is especially helpful in poor network conditions such as hotspots on the go or on a plane. If local changes fall out of sync we’ll let you know.Missing button links
If you add a button, we assume you would like a link attached. Now we’ll flag that for you to block any accidental sends.Missing fallback variables
When using contact and event properties in campaigns and loops, emails will not be sent if the values are missing from the contact or event. For example, if you have inserted “HelloFirst Name” in your email, and the contact doesn’t have a first name value, the loop or campaign email will not be sent. In some cases, that can be desired behavior but we’ve found most of the time a fallback should be added. We’ve added it as a warning and now Guardian will alert you when there are missing fallbacks and emails will send as expected.
Future improvements
