CREATE EMAILMESSAGE - Create a new email message within a campaign.

When creating campaigns via either the API or the UI, a default message is created. Before creating a message do a quick GET LIST to check for a default Invite Message.

https://api.alchemer.com/v5/survey/123456/surveycampaign/100000/emailmessage?_method=PUT

ParametersExampleRequired
Authentication Credentialsapi_token=abcd12345&api_token_secret=abcd12345
True
subtypemessage, reminderFalse
from[name]AlchemerFalse
from[email]surveys@alchemer.comFalse
repliessurveys@alchemer.comFalse
subjectSubject TextFalse
message_type*plaintext, htmlFalse
body[text]Body TextFalse
body[html]†Body HTMLFalse
send‡trueFalse
footerFooter Text + [account("physical address")]False
embed_question
true/false - Embed first survey question in body of emailFalse
disable_styles
true/false - Disable default email message stylesFalse

*All messages created via the API are set to plaintext only. If you use the POST call to change the messagetype to html this will set your email to HTML with plaintext backup.
†Pro tip: If you set the messagetype=html the message will be set to send an html email with a plaintext backup that automatically syncs. This way you only have to specify the HTML body!
‡The send parameter will send the message when the call is made only if set to true. This parameter does not need to be set to false to prevent the message from sending.
