Use Pro automation

​
What does this do for me?

The Automation page (Pro) lets you block protected dates so campaigns cannot be scheduled across them, save a proven campaign as a reusable template, and receive email alerts when a campaign is scheduled, started, completed, or fails.

​
Blackout windows

  1. Open Automation in the app. If you are on Pro, the page shows Pro enabled.
  2. Under Blackout windows, enter a Window name, Starts, and Ends time, then select Add window.
  3. The window is saved in the shop timezone shown on the page. While a blackout window overlaps a campaign, the app refuses to schedule it.
  4. To remove a window, select Delete for that row and confirm.

​
Campaign templates

  1. Under Campaign templates, choose a Source campaign and enter a Template name, then select Save template.
  2. To reuse a template, select Use template for it. The app re-validates every referenced product, theme, and customer segment and creates a fresh editable draft, which opens in the edit form. The template’s discount code is not copied, so you configure your own discount.
  3. To remove a template, select Delete and confirm.
Templates are versioned snapshots of a campaign. A product, theme, or segment referenced by a template that is missing or no longer active causes the app to refuse to create the draft until you update the source campaign and save the template again.

​
Campaign alerts

  1. Under Campaign alerts, enter an Alert email and turn on Enable alerts.
  2. Choose which lifecycle events you want: Scheduled, Started, Completed, and Failed.
  3. Select Save alerts.
Alerts are delivered through Pcnaid’s infrastructure. If alert delivery is configured in the app but the operator has not set the required provider keys, the page shows a warning that messages cannot send yet. Delivery results appear in the recent-events list.
