Consent and contact creation

Email marketing status is checked for known email addresses, and the email is not sent if the email address is unsubscribed or otherwise suppressed.

❗️
You must ensure you have email marketing consent for sends
If we don't recognize the email address sent to, we create a contact and set the email channel to subscribed. It's important therefore that you only attempt to send to email addresses that you have an email consent for.

List-unsubscribe

We include the List-unsubscribe tag in the technical header of all marketing emails sent through this endpoint; you don't need to add it.

Personalization fields

When using a triggered email template to provide the content of the email you can optionally provide overrides to any existing contact data fields in the personalizationFields array. The overrides will be used to populate any personalization fields in the template just for that email and will not be retained on the contact.

This can be used to provide value for contact data fields for use in the email that may not have been synced to Dotdigital yet.
