You can now create new custom fields after some have been removed.
Workflow - mailing seeds
Option added to make mailing seeds a required field in the mailings workflow.
Export behavior - incremental exports
Added new export type to export mailing-recipient data incrementally based on last export date.
Bug fix - welcome message
Welcome message selections are no longer lost when import settings are reloaded.
PostUp 5.7.335.1
Drip planner – stat views
Option added to view drip campaign stats for 30/60/90/365/infinity days.
REST API – update LastDateJoined
The list-recips field LastDateJoined is now updated when recipients are re-subscribed using the listsubscription endpoint.
PostUp 5.7.334.1
API - targeting estimator
You can now use the API to get the most recent targeting-estimator counts.

PostUp 5.7.331.1

The character limit on the email addresses textbox of a custom report was removed, allowing you to enter more email addresses into this field.
New site switch - external download prebuild
New site switch added for clients reporting intermittent chunking errors when using the external download feature.
When the switch is enabled, the report is written to a local file before being streamed to the response. This avoids delays between chunks, and allows a content-length response header to be added.
REST API - list subscription limits
The list-subscription endpoint now requires you to enter limits when listid and recipid are both blank.
Bug fix - URL tracking
When creating a mailing, having more than 1 utm parameter no longer causes the user-trackable link to be unchecked in the user-trackable URLs box.
PostUp 5.7.330.1
API - GlockApps integration
Tests using GlockApps, e.g. seed tests, updated to reflect GlockApps API changes and allow tests to run as expected.

UI - reports
Update to the colors used in the reports section to display the graphs.
PostUp 5.7.329.1

Categories created this way will function the same as categories created within the settings tab.
Imports - blank merge improvements

You can still overwrite fields with blank values if this is a desired behavior by unchecking the don't overwrite fields with blank values checkbox.
API - webevents
The new webevents REST API endpoint allows you to PUT and POST Web Events, individually or batched, into PostUp's web analytics tables.
This endpoint is intended for inserting interest based activity such as visiting a page or taking a survey. The API will write to the database based upon recipientID or email address.
Bug fix - mailing preview reports

Targeting for a mailing with web analytic targeting can now be loaded even if the targeted action or product has been deleted from the database.
Bug fix - import templates

Reporting metrics - click-through rate
Historically, PostUp has used Click-To-Open Rate as the available reporting metric for click analysis.

For more information on the impact of iOS 15 on email campaigns, read our blog FAQ: What Your Company Needs to Know About iOS 15.
To activate Click-Through rate for reporting, contact your Customer Success Manager or log a support ticket.
