The following relate to news and articles about Dynamics 365 Marketing

Create Dynamic Event Page Using Liquid Web Template For Your Events Portal

MEGAN V. WALKER

In the previous post in this series, we looked at adding the JavaScript for a Realtime Event Registration Form to a Web Page in a Power Portal. Although this approach wasn’t wrong, it meant that for each Event you would need a new Web Page… AND it’s likely that the people on your team who work in Marketing are likely not the same people comfortable with editing the portal. In this post we will look at creating a Web Template using Liquid and HTML to display an individual Event record. Let’s take a look!

What happened to posting to Twitter?

VIVIAN VOSS

If you’ve been to any events over the past few years, you may have been lucky enough to catch a session from Vivian. She focuses on D365 Marketing, Customer Insights and overall Customer Experience functionality. She found out recently that posts from the Marketing App to Twitter are failing. If you using the social posting functionality, make sure you read on to find out what is going on!

Create complex segments and find the right target audience

PAULINE KODLE

I’m always happy to find new blogs and especially people who are writing about D365 Marketing. Pauline Kolde is in Germany, and is not only posting in her native language, but also posting those same articles in English too. Impressive! She’s dividing up her site with articles on Dynamics 365 Customer Insights Journeys (Marketing), Customer Insights Data (Customer Insights) and Customer Voice. Here is a link to one of her recent articles on creating segments. Can’t wait to see more from you Pauline!

Use Dataverse Table Create/Update operations in Custom Trigger to add wait in the Real Time Journeys!

SIDDHESH CHAVAN

Another person who has blogged about D365 Marketing is Siddhesh Chavan, and I hope to see more articles on the way! This one is about using customer triggers to add wait times in a Realtime Marketing Journey. Adding wait times in a journey can be helpful, but we don’t always know how long to wait. This example looks at waiting until a trigger has been activated, and a specific value is set before the journey continues. Great work Siddhesh!

Microsoft to make Dynamics 365 Marketing a part of D365 Customer Insights

MSDYNAMICSWORLD - JASON GUMPERT

Last week we had a lot on the merge news from Microsoft, bringing D365 Marketing in as a part of D365 Customer Insights. Still recent news though, so I wanted to share an article from MSDynamicsWorld which shares thoughts and insights from people at Microsoft, oh and something from me in there too! Thanks for including Jason!😊

Microsoft Honors DMARC Enforcement Policies

DMARCIAN

This one might be a little more technical, but a change from Microsoft and the way it handles DMARC functionality might be of significance to some. Previously Microsoft treated DMARC reject policy the same way as it handled quarantine. This meant emails may appear to be rejected when not entirely accurate. The change being rolled out for paid Microsoft 365 enterprise accounts means a choice can now be made on how to handle email that fail DMARC validation. Read the article from DMARCIAN for more information.
