Additional options for Salesforce Marketing Cloud

There are a few other options you can optionally enable for your Salesforce Marketing Cloud exports:

​
Add Content Slot

Enabling the Slot toggle will automatically add a <div data-type="slot" data-key="uniqueKeyHere" data-label="Drop Blocks or Content Here"></div> tag into your exported HTML, which will allow you to drag and drop other content into your email from the Marketing Cloud editor.

​
Add Alias Tags

Enabling the Aliases toggle will automatically add an alias="Your Figma layer name" attribute to any of your button, image, social icon or navbar links in your Figma design. It will automatically populate this with whatever each Figma layer name is in your layers panel.

This will allow you to specify aliases for those <a> tag links in your exported HTML to help tracking data by naming them something relevant to the design (eg. “Hero CTA Button”).

​
Add Conversion Tags

Enabling the Conversions toggle will automatically add a conversion="true" attribute onto any <a> link tags your exported HTML.

​
Add Impression Tags

Enabling the Impressions toggle will automatically wrap any Row, Wrapper or Hero layers with an opening %%=BeginImpressionRegion("your_figma_layer_name")=%% and closing %%=EndImpressionRegion()=%% Salesforce Marketing Cloud Impression tags in your exported HTML.

​
HTML Block Files

Enabling the Blocks toggle will automatically include some extra .html files to your .zip file export; it will automatically split out each row from your Emailify design into their own HTML files, allowing you to extract these more easily if you’re planning to create your own re-useable modules in Salesforce Marketing Cloud.

You’ll also need to be mindful that the HTML code for each block will still require the CSS/<style> tags and other elements from the <head> tag, so you’ll need to spend some time extracting those if you are taking this approach.

Please note, this toggle will only be available when the Marketing Cloud (Zip) platform option is selected in the Emailify export settings panel, and won’t be visible if the API option is selected.
