  - About Deliver and transactional message
    A transactional message is a single message sent in response to a specific, predetermined transaction detected in your business systems. Unica provides the Deliver Transactional messaging Service (TMS) as a hosted web service to process transactional messages. Digital marketers work with application developers to integrate corporate transaction management systems with the Deliver TMS.
  - Integration with the Deliver transactional message service
    The Deliver Transactional messaging System (TMS) is a web service hosted as part of HCL Unica hosted services. Application developers must work with digital marketers in your organization to create the client applications required to integrate your corporate transactional systems with the Deliver TMS. These client applications initiate each transactional message by making a SOAP request to the Deliver TMS over an HTTPS connection.
  - The Deliver Transactional Mailing Service API
    The Deliver Transactional Mailing Service is a web service hosted in HCL Unica. It provides an API that contains one method calledsendMailing.
  - Sample client
    Unica provides sample transactional message clients to guide application developers that create client applications that make web service calls to the Deliver Transactional Messaging Service (TMS). This sample client is based on the second-generation WSDL.

    - Using dynamic transactional images in transactional email messages
      Using dynamic transactional images requires separate actions by email designers and transactional application developers. Email designers define an image label in the email document to indicate where a dynamic transactional image appears in the email. Application developers configure the local transactional email client to reference the image label in transactional email requests. Corporate transactional systems provide the image content when the transactional mailing runs.

About Dynamic Transactional Images

Dynamic transactional images are images specific to a particular individual that you can include with transactional email messages. Dynamic transactional images are sent as attachments to transactional email but they display as images embedded in the body of the message.

A common example of using individualized images involves embedding ticket barcodes or QR codes in a transactional email message. Your corporate business systems create the barcode and provide it to the local transactional email client. The client includes the image attachment in the SOAP request submitted to the Deliver TMS. Because the image is transmitted as an attachment, the email recipient sees the barcode displayed in the email even if the email client is configured to turn images off.

Dynamic transactional images are not available in standard email messages nor are they supported for use within advanced scripts for email.
