Configure Campaign options
Adobe Campaign Web includes technical options that allow you to configure the application more specifically. Some of these options are built-in, while others can be added manually as needed.
Access Campaign options
Options are available from the Administration / Options menu. Use the filter pane to narrow down the list and quickly locate the option you need.
[Options list displayed in the Administration / Options menu]
From the options list, you can:
- Duplicate or delete an option: Click the ellipsis button and select the desired action.
- Modify an option: Click the option’s name to open its properties. Make your changes and save.
- Create a custom option: Click the Create option button.
Create an option
The Adobe Campaign Web user interface enables you to create custom options to meet your requirements. This is particularly useful when working with JavaScript code workflow activities to store intermediate data.
To create an option:
- Access the options list and click Create option.
- Enter a name for the option, select its type, and set the desired value.
- Click Create to create the option.
Options can act as temporary storage for data, offering the following benefits:
- Typed Values: Options support specific data types, such as dates, integers, strings, etc.
- Flexibility: Options allow users to store and retrieve data efficiently without the overhead of managing database tables.
In the example below, a custom option named sampleOption
is created with the initial value “a”. A JavaScript code activity in a workflow modifies this option’s value and stores it in a variable. The updated value is displayed in the workflow logs and reflected in the Options menu.
-
Create the option.
-
Configure a JavaScript code activity and start the workflow.
-
Run the workflow to see the updated value in the workflow logs.
-
The updated value is now visible in the Options menu.
