Setting up Unica Plan assets for use in Unica Campaign offers
This topic explains what administrators must do to allow Unica Campaign users to relate a digital asset from Unica Plan to a Unica Campaign offer.
About this task
An asset is an electronic file that is designed for use in a marketing program. Examples include logos, brand images, marketing research documents, reference materials, corporate collateral, or document templates. To add an asset to a Unica Campaign offer, you use the CreativeURL attribute. The CreativeURL attribute is a standard offer attribute that is installed with Unica Campaign. A "Creative URL" is a pointer to a file in a Unica Plan asset library.
