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.
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 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.

      - Defining an image label for dynamic transactional images
        You define image labels for dynamic transactional images using a specific format.
      - Specifying dynamic transactional images in the transactional email request
        In the web service request for transactional email, specify dynamic transactional images as email attachments. Attachment size requirements for other types of attachments also apply to dynamic transactional images. Each dynamic transactional image cannot exceed 1 Mb and the total of all attachments cannot exceed 2 Mb.

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.

Email designers define dynamic transactional image labels by modifying tags in the HTML template that defines the email. Designers can define image labels with the Deliver Document Composer or by modifying the HTML code directly. Image labels use a syntax reserved for dynamic transactional images. The location of the image label determines how and where a dynamic transactional image appears in the body of an email.

Application developers must ensure that all of the labels that appear in the email are referenced in transactional email requests. The image label and the image content must be part of the SOAP request that the local transactional email client submits to the Deliver TMS. The image labels are case sensitive and must appear in the SOAP request exactly as they are defined in the email.
