    Hi @ggerla thanks for your post. Within the UI, this is what I would expect to do but hear your concern. Do you have access to any API workflow tools?

  • Re: Nurture Stats Overview

    Hard bounces are fairly straightforward because you will get an error code that indicates why the email bounced. Soft bounces are more difficult, but they are a leading indicator of issues that you should look at via Deliverability. A "soft bounce" is a return when Marketo attempts over and over t...
