You must be an administrator in Customer Insights to add a connection.

Configure an export

To configure this export, you must have permission for this connection type.

  1. Go to Data > Exports.

  3. In the Connection for export field, choose a connection from the Omnisend section. Contact an administrator if no connection is available.

  4. Enter a name for the export.

  5. In the Data matching section, in the Email field, select the field that represents a customer's email address.
