All Opted-In Emails table

The All Opted In Emails table contains all opted-in email addresses (and associated Amperity IDs). This table is built from the Email Opt Status table, after which it can be extended to support brands, region, email program, and language preferences.

Use in segments

Use the contactable_email attribute from the Customer Attributes table when building segments.

For each sub-audience in a campaign, to send only email addresses that have opted in, open Edit Attributes and use the email attribute in the All Opted-In Emails table.

For example:

Send only email addresses that have opted in.

You may use other attributes in the All Opted-In Emails table (if they are available) to apply additional filters to the sub-audience.

Note

The email attribute in the All Opted-In Emails table may represent more than one opted-in email address for the same customer. This is not uncommon and you may notice a difference between the number of records in the segment versus the (typically higher) number of records that were delivered by the campaign.

Warning

The All Opted-In Emails table is not unique by Amperity ID and should not be used within the Segment Editor.

Add table

The All Opted-In Emails table requires the Email Opt Status table, after which you can extend support for additional requirements.

To add the All Opted-In Emails table

  1. From the Database Editor, click Add Table.

  2. Name the table “All Opted-In Emails”.

  3. Set the build mode to SQL.

  4. Click Apply template, and then select All Opted-In Emails.

    The minimum requirement for this table is to SELECT all attributes from the Email Opt Status table:

    SELECT
      *
    FROM Email_Opt_Status
    WHERE is_email_opted_in
    
  5. Click Validate to verify the SQL runs without error.

  6. Click Next. This opens the Database Table Definition page.

  7. Add a table description. This enables a tooltip that is visible from other areas in Amperity.

  8. Select Make available in Visual Segment Editor. This ensures the table is available from the Edit Attributes dialog in the campaign editor.

    Important

    You should not use attributes in this table to build segments.

  9. Leave the Table Semantics drop-down empty.

  10. Click Save.

Extend table

You can extend the All Opted-In Emails table to contain specific sets of attributes. For example:

  • A brand

  • A region

  • The name of your email program

  • The frequency at which your customers allow emails to be sent

  • Language preference

For example, to extend the All Opted-In Emails table to support a single brand in Europe, update the SQL for the All Opted In Emails table:

SELECT
  *
FROM Email_Opt_Status
WHERE is_email_opted_in
AND brand = ACME
AND region = Europe

You can use an AND clause for any of the individual fields in the Email Opt Status table.

Add brand-specific table

You can add brand-specific tables using the same steps for adding the All Opted In Emails table. Append the name of your brand after the name of the table. For example: “All_Opted_In_Emails_ACME”.

Column reference

The All Opted In Emails table contains the same columns as the Email Opt Status table. Unlike the Email Opt Status table, the All Opted In Emails table should be made available to the Segment Editor. This ensures that the email attribute in this table is available to campaigns. (Choose the email attribute from the All Opted In Emails table from the Edit Attributes menu.)
