Allow triggers in smart campaigns to update program status for email programs

Allow triggers in smart campaigns to update program status for email programs

Traditionally, we set up a trigger-based smart campaign to change program statuses when someone converts for one of our campaigns. I just ran my first email program campaign, and was frustrated that this is no longer an option -- everything has to be filter-based. From what I can tell, this isn't something that is available in the new release -- but hopefully I'm wrong 🙂

It's great for our reps to have a heads up as people are converting, rather than a day later, to ensure appropriate follow-up timing.

Trask, simply add a Smart Campaign as a local asset to the Email Program and you can trigger off of program status and perform whatever flow you want. 

The Email Program is meant to make batch email campaigns ridiculously simple.  So the Smart List only has a filter because the email, being a batch campaign, can't be sent via a trigger.  Adding triggers wouldn't make sense in this context.

Hope that helps.
