Send data to Sailthru¶
Sailthru is a cross-channel marketing platform built to deliver personalized experiences for consumers across email, web, and mobile channels.
Use Amperity to manage audience lists in Sailthru. Build a query using the email field, and then send the results of that query to Sailthru or build a segment that matches specific criteria, and then send the email addresses for customers who belong to that audience. You may extend the audience using custom attributes.
Note
This destination uses the Sailthru API .
This topic describes the steps that are required to send email address lists to Sailthru from Amperity:
Get details¶
Sailthru requires the following configuration details:
![]() |
An API key and API secret. Tip You can find the API key and secret after you log in to Sailthru. The API key and API secret are available after you authenticate to the Sailthru API. (See the first item under “Setup – API & Postbacks” on that page.) |
![]() |
The list name to which the Sailthru connector will write. This can be the name of an existing list or a new list. |
![]() |

Extended profile attributes¶
You can extend audiences that are sent to Sailthru by including extended profile attributes.

,country
,full_name AS name
