As shown above:

Step 1: Select ESP

Select Netcore from the List of Available ESPs. In doing so, you will be prompted by a configuration modal.

Step 2: Name your Configuration

Please add a user-friendly name that enables you to identify the right ESP for a campaign while creating it. This comes in handy especially when you have multiple accounts with the same ESP for sending different types of campaigns (Transactional/ Promotional).

For example, if you have configured a Netcore account for sending both transactional and promotional campaigns, then you can name the configuration:

  • Netcore Global
  • Netcore (all types)

Step 3: Add API Key

Navigate to your Netcore dashboard to find your API Key, paste it in the configuration modal.

Step 4: Add ESP

Click on Add ESP and you are good to go!

Step 5: Add WebEngage Webhook URL in Netcore dashboard (Highly Recommended)

Adding the WebEngage Webhook in Netcore will enable us to receive delivery status notifications for each user. This includes campaign performance indicators like message delivered, failed, queued, opened, and so on.

Here's how you can go about it:

Step 5.1.: As shown below, you will find your Netcore integration under the section, Your Email Service Provider List.

Step 5.2.: Click the overflow menu placed on the extreme right, click View Webhook URL, and copy it.

Step 5.3.: As shown below, Navigate to Settings > API > Webhooks in your Netcore dashboard and configure the following settings:

1360
  • Select POST as the Method of Data Transmission

  • Configure the section Custom APIs and leave global API blank. Here's how you can go about it:

    • Paste the WebEngage Webhook URL under the following fields & check all the boxes under each to provide permissions:

      • Emails are Sent
      • Emails are Bounced
      • Emails are Unsubscribed
      • Emails are Abuse
      • Emails are Dropped
      • Emails are Invalid
    • Do not add the Webhook URL under the fields; Emails are Opened, Emails are Clicked.

Don't forget to save all your settings. :)
