The Archiver Integration automatically generates archive files for specific email sends and processes them via a scheduled integration script.

This feature is typically used for compliance, record-keeping, or external storage of campaign activity.

Before You Begin

  • Ensure you have access to Integrations
  • Confirm you have a campaign folder set up to designate for archiving. To setup new campaign, please refer to KB New Campaign.
  • Ensure you understand how to create and broadcast an email activity

Step 1: Create or Activate an Archiver Integration

  1. Navigate to Integrations
  2. Create a new integration

Archiver

  1. Select type: Archiver
  2. Complete all required configuration fields
    • Credential to use: Credential to external system where archived copies will be sent – typically the Taguchi SFTP folder will be used.
    • Export type: Credential dependent - typically SFTP.
    • Destination directory: Location where files will be saved
    • Campaign Ids: Designate the campaign that will have archived copies created for it. All activities sent from these campaign folders will have archived copies creates
  3. Activate the integration

⚠️ The integration must be active for the archiving script to run.

Step 3: Archive File Creation

Once the email has been successfully sent Taguchi will generate an archive file for that send. To confirm successful processing:

  1. Navigate to Integrations
  2. Locate your Archiver integration

Step 4: Validate Your Archived Activities

In your destination folder you will find a zip folder with your email copies. These copies will contain all the personalisation content sent to each recipient. Inside the ZIP folder you will find:

  1. A .html file for each recipient named in the following format: {activity-id}.{subscriber-id}.{unique-subscriber-key}-email.html
  2. A .txt headers file for each recipient named in the following format: {activity-id}.{subscriber-id}.{unique-subscriber-key}-headers.text
  3. An images folder which has all the relevant image files for all recipients

How It Works (Summary)

β€’ Only email activities inside the designated β€œarchive” campaign folder trigger archive file creation. β€’ Successful and failed executions can be monitored via Integration Logs. β€’ Email activities outside the archive folder are ignored by the integration.

If you experience issues: β€’ Confirm the integration is active β€’ Confirm the email activity is in the correct folder β€’ Review the Integration Logs for error details
