Contact Object
contact.in_list
contact.in_list will allow you to add conditional content based on whether they're in a list or not. In conjunction with our Dynamic Lists functionality it allows for behavioural filtering with conditional content.
The call accepts a list id and will return a boolean, which is based on whether a contact is in the specified list.
contact.in_list(<list_id>)
Example use:
[* IF contact.in_list(1234) *]
<b>You're subscribed to our offers list already</b>
[* ELSE *]
<a href="#...">Subscribe to our offers list here!</a>
[* END *]
Note: If you have contact as a variable name you won't be able to use the contact object.
contact.promotion
contact.promotion(id) is used for the promotion codes call
[* promotion = contact.promotion(promotion_id) *]
With its methods you will be able to assign promotion codes to contacts at campaign launch. Please note: promotion codes will have to be imported to Adestra first. Please see our Promotion Codes documentation to take you through the process.
It has three methods:
- has_available_codes: this returns true if there are any codes still available for the promotion
- get_code: looks up any existing code for the contact and returns it or allocates one if there isn't
- get_code_form_campaign(campign_id): looks up any existing code for the contact for the given campaign and returns it if it exists. It does not allocate a new code on that campaign
contact.transaction
Using the transaction result set, you will be able to find information about all transactions for a contact and search for specific transactions. You can also find product information, both related to the transaction and specifically for a product; reference number, name etc.
