api_event

Initiate an Event API call directly from Zephyr. Commonly used within triggers.

{api_event({'id':<emailAddress>, 'event':'<eventName>'})}

Pass any valid object according to the Event API POST-method documentation.

Examples

Use Case: Based on a certain transactional send, you can trigger the event API to take users down a custom message stream.

Zephyr:

In the Trigger:
Event: On Send
Time: 0 minutes
Action: Custom Zephyr:

{if profile.vars.gender == "M"}
{api_event({'id':email, 'event':'mens-followup'})}
{else if profile.vars.gender == "F"}
{api_event({'id':email, 'event':'womens-followup'})}
{/if}
