Store HTML Content in the Content Store

Goal​

To add HTML content to the Content Store.

Procedure​

1. In the top navigation, click ​Content Management​ > ​Content Store​ > All files.

2. Click Create.

3. In the ​Name input field, enter a name for the Content Element. The name does not have to be unique, and it can be up to 60 characters long.

4. In the ​Description input field, enter a description of the Content Element. The description is inserted as ALT text when you add an image from the content store to a message. The ALT text is displayed in the email if the email server cannot load the image (e.g. if the customer has suppressed the display of images in his inbox).

5. In the ​Content Block​ area, select the ​HTML / HTML Editor option. The window displays an input field for entering HTML content.

6. In the input field, enter the HTML code you want to store in the content store.

7. To view the HTML as it will be displayed in a browser and to use the HTML editing tools, click the ​HTML Editor​ button to switch to the editor.

8. Click the ​Save button. The HTML content is saved in the Content Store and can be added to messages.

By default, content store elements are stored for 6 months after their last download. It is possible to manually enter an expiration date in the ​Content Element Settings​ window. If you need to store elements for longer than 6 months, contact your customer service representative.
