This section contains structured knowledge intended to support interpretation, retrieval, and question answering related to this topic.

• TL;DR: This page explains how an administrator creates a channel configuration that links a custom channel to a named, reusable preset, including API credentials, an optional subdomain, dynamic parameters, and payload defaults, so that marketers can select it when building campaigns and journeys.

Intents:

• Create a channel configuration for an activated custom channel
• Select the API credentials to use for the configuration
• Select a delegated subdomain for tracking links in the payload
• Provide values for dynamic parameters and payload fields
• Save and activate the channel configuration for marketers to select

Glossary:

• Channel configuration: A named, reusable preset that links a custom channel to credentials, a subdomain, and payload defaults, which marketers select when building campaigns and journeys (product-specific)
• Dynamic parameters: The section that appears when the channel has headers or query parameters defined as variable, where a value is entered for each parameter (product-specific)
• Payload configuration: The section that displays payload fields whose Channel config checkbox is enabled, where a value is configured for each field (product-specific)
• Delegated subdomain: A subdomain that can be selected to track links present in the payload for this configuration (product-specific)

Guardrails:

• Only activated custom channels can be selected in the Select channel drop-down.
• The API credentials field appears only if the selected channel uses an authentication type other than None.
• The Dynamic parameters section appears only if the channel has headers or query parameters defined as variable.
• The Payload configuration section appears only for payload fields that have the Channel config checkbox enabled.
• Clicking Submit saves and activates the channel configuration.

Terminology:

• Canonical name: channel configuration — Acronym: n/a — variants: custom channel configuration, named preset
• Synonyms: “Dynamic parameters” = “variable headers or query parameters”
• Do not confuse: “channel configuration” (the reusable preset) ≠ “custom channel” (the underlying channel definition)
• Do not confuse: “Dynamic parameters” (values for variable headers or query parameters) ≠ “Payload configuration” (values for payload fields enabled for the channel config)
