Example code that passes across values to a Campaign Monitor field (note that the {{Id.valueOf}} are just examples and will need to be changed).

{noformat}List<wbsendit.SendSmartEmail.SendSmartEmailRequest> vSendSmartEmailRequestList = new List<wbsendit.SendSmartEmail.SendSmartEmailRequest>();
wbsendit.SendSmartEmail.SendSmartEmailRequest vSendSmartEmailRequest = new wbsendit.SendSmartEmail.SendSmartEmailRequest();
vSendSmartEmailRequest.RootObject = Id.valueOf('500JW000009e5emYAA'); // E.g. the contact Id.
vSendSmartEmailRequest.SmartEmailId = Id.valueOf('a0CJW00000fgry62AA'); // The individual smart email template.
Map<String, String> vMap = new Map<String, String>();
vMap.put('variableName', 'THIS IS CUSTOM VALUE!');
vSendSmartEmailRequest.customMappings = vMap;
vSendSmartEmailRequest.direct = true;
vSendSmartEmailRequestList.add(vSendSmartEmailRequest);
wbsendit.SendSmartEmail.sendEmail(vSendSmartEmailRequestList);{noformat}

Make syncing suppression list optional

The suppression list is required in Salesforce to prevent subscribers in a 'Deleted' status from being accidentally 'Resubscribed' if they are on the Campaign Monitor suppression. list.

Improve sidebar menu icons

We have Improved our sidebar menu icons to make them clearer.

Allow Email Activity & Journeys lightning component to be tuned.

The Email & Journey email component currently has a set limit of 10 subscription lists a contact can be on before we need to apply a list filter. The reason we have to a filter when a person is on more than 10 lists is to be respectful of Salesforce limits. However, the limit of ten can now be tuned via our maintenace tab.

https://test.salesforce.com/packaging/installPackage.apexp?p0=04t0o000002qPRGAA2

Improve verification validation process

Before you can connect Salesforce to Campaign Monitor you must have a verified Campaign Monitor account. Often this is overlooked, to help we have added some additional messaging and support to help with this process.

Previously if you had a lead and contact with the same email address, both would be linked as Salesforce campaign members to the linked campaign. This change means that only the contact record will result in a campaign member (essentially avoiding duplicate campaign members).
https://test.salesforce.com/packaging/installPackage.apexp?p0=04t0o000002qP9oAAE

Add ability to tune system settings in Maintenance

Given the diverse customisations that can be applied to Salesforce, it may be required to tune selected backend settings to help with govenor limits. For example you might want to change the batch size of a particular job. To help we have added a screen which can be access via our maintenance tab to make these changes.

This operation is very advanced and should be fully understood before making any changes.

Limit number of campaign members synced

The new Campaign Monitor API now allows the number of campaigns returned to be filtered by date. This allows us to limit the number of campaign members synced each time the primary sync runs. Previously it would attempt to sync all members for all Campaigns for all time. Now it will only process campaigns that were sent in the last 365 days.

Auto adjust email opt batch size

The email opt-out class is responsible for updating the standard email opt-out field on the contact or lead objects.

Improve permission error messages when running primary sync

Previously, if the user didn’t have access to certain fields, the error message would return “Insufficient permissions: secure query included inaccessible field”. With this improvement, the actual field name should be returned - making it easier to check which permissions the user is missing.

Add marketing user check for users with full access permission set

When working with Salesforce Campaigns the marketing user checkbox needs to be checked. This is often missed even though the person affected is generally a Salesforce system administrator.  To help we have added the permission to our full access set to enable access to the Salesforce Campaign object.

We have improved the styling of in-app tool tips.
