Email Send filter logic

Hi there,

 

I'm setting up a campaign where I will be sending 5 emails to a smart list. Is there a possibility to use filter "3 open emails", in a way to show leads who at least open 3 emails? I've seen that could be done by advanced filter in smart list but there are so many combination and wondering if there's some workaround to avoid that?

 

Thanks!

Thanks for answering! 

Yes, I am sending to a list of somewhere around of 400-500, but to be honest not quite understand  your solution 😕😕

In an Opened Email trigger, the special token {{Trigger.Name}} is available — that's the name of the email asset.

 

A Call Webhook flow step can send {{Trigger.Name}} to a remote service. With simple deduplication, the service can count how many unique email names were encountered, either encountered ever or in a set period (last day). Then the number gets passed back to Marketo.  If it's >= 3, then you can proceed to your next step.

 

Forum rules prevent me from going further into it, but setups like this are run by a bunch of our clients (usually with pageviews, like a unique # of product detail pages in 10m, etc.).

You can't use a single filter to specify "opened 3 different emails."

Hi there,

 

Yes, I'm aware of that. I was just wondering if there's a way to use some combination of filters in smart list to show people who at least opened 3 out of 5 emails?

Yes, I'm aware of that.

OK. That was not clear from your question.

 

There's no shortcut to what you describe, it all has to be built using Boolean logic, and it's going to be pretty maddening to build out.

 

It would be much easier to use a webhook to detect when someone has met the threshold and just flip a flag. But the Opened Email activity in particular is too high-volume to log them w/a webhook, unless you're sending < 25,000 emails/day.
