How do I verify that my tracking link domain is secure? There are two primary methods for verifying that your domain is secure; by testing within a web browser and using a third-party SSL checker. Verifying Domain Security Through Web Browser 1. In your Marketo instance, navigate to Admin --> Email 2. In this link https://<your_tracking_domain>/trk?=ping, replace <your_tracking_domain> with your actual tracking domain. 3. Enter this link into your browser and click Enter. 4. Click the padlock at the left of the URL in the address bar. 5. In the pop-up box, verify that the certificate is valid and shows no security warnings. Verifying Domain Security Through Online Service You can also verify your SSL certificate to make sure it is correctly installed, valid, and trusted using the SSL Shopper SSL Checker tool. This is a third-party tool not owned or operated by Marketo, but it is a useful resource many utilize. 1. Navigate to https://www.sslshopper.com/ssl-checker.html 2. Type in your branded tracking domain you wish to verify. 3. Click "Check SSL". 4. Ensure that all check marks are green. If all check marks are green the certificate is valid and your domain is secure.

Issue Description In sent emails, if the system token {{system.viewAsWebpageLink}} is used, the link will load successfully on web browsers. However on the same browser session, after refreshing the page once, the link will return an error "Cannot get email content- Customer does not belong to any POD". Issue Resolution After Marketo's 2019 Q1 release, a security enhancement has been set for Marketo emails. When loaded on a browser, a View as Webpage Link will include the recipients' unique mkt_tok parameter. If recipients of the Marketo emails were sharing these links, this would mean that they are also sharing their unique/private mkt_tok with third parties. With this enhancement, the view as webpage link is only expected to load once and the mkt_tok value which is contained in the link will disappear after the page has loaded. With the removal of the mkt_token value on the link, hitting refresh will send a request to Marketo that does not contain the recipient's lead and email information, so there is no data for the link to return.

Issue Description Naming conventions of email in email performance report Issue Resolution Email reports will use an email's full label including the program it exists in. Although asset names cannot duplicate within Programs, they can be duplicated within the whole Instance and Email Performance Reports have access to emails from an entire instance. For example if you had two newsletter programs, both with an email named "October Newsletter" the full program name can help differentiate between the two. NL-2018-10-Technology Program.October Newsletter NL-2018-10-Industry Program.October Newsletter The email report will always display with the full email name including the program it was created in to avoid this confusion. Even within a specific Program Report, you can access all emails within the Instance.

Issue Description Example: Person A was sent an email from Marketo, clicked on a tracked link in an Email to a tracked web page, but the web page activity was recorded on Person B Issue Resolution This can happen if Person A and Person B are sharing a computer.  Prior to Person A clicking on the track link in the email to redirect to the tracked web page, Person B was already 'cookied' as a known lead on the same computer and web browser. In Marketo, once a lead becomes known, cookied and tracked on a web browser, any tracked web activities on that browser will be associated to the first cookied lead until the cookie is expired or deleted. Note: to confirm that Person A and Person B are using the same computer and web browser, you can check the details of the most recent web activities and compare if their User Agent and Client IP address is the same.

Issue Description In an attempt to approve an email, a 'Not Allowed' error message is being displayed with the following details: {{lead.Email Address}} : Token key not found Issue Resolution Check that token syntax is correctly inserted with no missing left or right 'curly' brackets '{{' '}}' Check that the field name of the token does not have any incorrect spelling (e.g. Email Address) If the token syntax is correct and the field name of the token is spelled correctly, it is possible that the field name of the token contains a Unicode non-breaking space (e.g. between 'Email' and 'Address'). This would have been inserted if it was copied across from a platform that was encoded with Unicode (e.g. Microsoft Word) - To rectify this, delete the space in the token and re-insert it with a normal space using the spacebar on the keyboard. Once this is corrected, the email approval should work.

Issue Description When using a Change Data Value flow step for a datetime field type and manually entering in a date and time, the time is displayed, but removed from flow step upon refresh. Issue Resolution   The reason that the time is removed is because the display field in the flow step is a calendar picker (the drop-down). Calendar pickers do not support displaying the time. It is meant to select a date on the calendar and display that date. It appears to store the value to the record when manually entered in the field, but it will not remain upon campaign refresh.

Issue Description Whenever a lead enters Marketo, it is being deleted automatically.   Issue Resolution Marketo will never delete any lead records on its own unless you have setup a trigger or batch campaign to do so. We suggest you to review your campaigns in Campaign Inspector and check for the campaign that is using "Delete Person," or "Delete Person from SFDC" with the value true for "Delete in Marketo."   If you have figured out the campaign and you would like to restore the deleted leads, contact support (https://nation.marketo.com/docs/DOC-1670-about-support) and they may be able to restore the deleted leads with a buffer period 30 days from the date of lead deletion.  Is this article helpful ?

Issue Description Currency type fields are changing unexpectedly. It may appear that they are being rounded off at first glance, but a better description is that they are being approximated imprecisely. This is a feature of all floating point values. For example: if you enter the value as 8092384905, Marketo will truncate it to 8092390000.   Issue Resolution This is an expected behavior. Currency type fields are stored as single precision float values which have 6-7 digits of significance. Since standard fields type cannot be changed, we suggest that you create a new custom field to hold the currency value. Human-readable Values: Strings Often the easiest work-around for larger currency values is to use a field of type "String". String fields are adequate for storing a value, but do not offer the capability to compare (between, greater than, less than, at least, at most) values.   Comparable Values: Integers To preserve comparison capability, store the value as an integer which can take on values from -2147483647 to 2147483647. For US Dollars, this integer can represent the number of cents (pennies) and therefore currency values from ($21,474,836.47) to $21,474,836.47. Using this technique, the operators between, greater than, less than, at least, and at most will work, just remember you're what you're comparing: cents in this example. Even Larger Comparable Values: Compound Integers If even larger values are required, two integer fields (large and small) can be used to represent currencies (again, assuming cents) from ($46,116,860,141,324,206.00) to $46,116,860,141,324,206.00. To break up a currency value into two fields, divide the number of cents by 2147483647 and store in the large value field, then store the remainder (modulus) in the small value field. To compare a compound (two fields) value, compare the large values first and if they are equal, then compare the small values. Since compound fields will be hard for a human to read, it may be prudent to also store the value as a string depending on your requirements. Is this article helpful ? YesNo

Issue Description You have developed a Marketo landing page and enabled Personalized URLs (PURLs) for your records, but when people visit the PURL form pre-fill does not take place.   Issue Resolution When a person visits a PURL landing page, the form pre-fill checks their Munchkin tracking cookie to identify what values to populate for the form fields. If that person has a Munchkin tracking cookie associated to a known record in the database, it will pull and populate the information from that record. However, if this is the first time this person has visited a Munchkin tracked page or their browser is tied to an anonymous record, the pre-fill will not populate any information into the form. The customer/prospect will need to fill out a form or click on a tracked link in an email sent from Marketo. This will allow future PURLs that people visit going forward will have pre-fill populate as their cookie will be tied to a known record in the database.       The web page visit will be associated back to the know record for the PURL. Additionally, you can also use Person related tokens on the landing page and those will resolve. For examples having the token in the text that states {{lead.First Name:default=Default}} within the body of the landing page will populate with the expected persons first name for the PURL they visited. This is because the token generation goes through a different path on the back end for PURLs. Is this article helpful ? YesNo

Issue Description A lead ran through a smart campaign and should have been sent a push notification but there is no activity of this happening even though the lead is a member of the campaign. Issue Resolution Assuming other leads are receiving the push notification (which suggests the app itself is not to blame) the first thing to check is the lead record itself. If the lead is marked as Marketing Suspended or Black Listed, this will prevent the record from receiving a push notification. Mark these fields as "False" and send the record through the campaign again, the lead should now be sent the push notification.
