Our lists are used not only for email lists (recipient lists; subscriber lists), but also for product lists, blog & social media feeds as well as other custom lists and automated processes. Before you use automations, you first need to create a list that can be accessed by the action.

๐Ÿ’ก In the best case, you only need one list, in which you can work with segments and filters. More about this here.


Create a Subscriber List

  1. Go to Automations in the left sidebar.

  2. Click Create in the top right corner.

  3. Select the type of list you want.

  4. For example, if you want to use the list to send a newsletter to multiple email addresses, select Email List.

  5. Then give the list a suitable name.

Now you can configure the list extensively.


Explanation of each Tab

Once you have selected a list, you have the possibility to configure it. Use the tabs shown above to make the desired settings.

Data

Here you can see the data collected in the created list. All of your subscribers are listed here. You can edit individual records and view their activities and the emails sent so far.

Actions

This tab leads you to the Workflow Builder, where you can create automated processes and customer journeys.

Settings

Here you can find all preconfigured & user defined list fields, which should be stored in the list. You cannot delete or edit the preconfigured fields. Create user-defined list fields if required, after further setting options. Using fields, the information of your users will be stored and listed in a structured way.

๐Ÿ’ก It is useful to create all desired list fields before filling the list.

In addition, the following settings can be edited:

  • List name: Name of the list

  • List type: type of the list

  • Active: Sets the entire list active or inactive. If the list is inactive, actions and campaigns are disabled.

  • Allow public creation: Select whether a record may be created externally, for example by your users.

  • Allow public updates: Select whether the data may be edited from outside, for example by your users.

  • Allow public reading: Select whether the data may be read from outside, for example by your users.

    ๐Ÿ’ก For e-mail lists, public reading of the entire list is always prohibited. Here it is only possible to read a specific entry via the ID.

  • Update existing entries: If this option is enabled, users can subscribe to the list again and the existing entry will be updated. If this option is disabled, the user will receive an error message that, for example, their email address already exists.

  • Related Data Type: By entering this, you decide if JUNE should create an ID or if you provide an ID in your data yourself. This ID is then used to create the link between Related Data lists.

  • Label field: Determines in Related-Data which field is used for the label. For forms, this field is also used to determine the display name for auto-generated dropdowns/selects.

  • Unique Field: Determines which field in the list is used for indexing within the database. This field must be unique. The โ€œChangeโ€ button changes the unique field and restarts the indexing. For large lists, this process may take a little longer.

  • List entry limit: Set a limit of entries within this list.

  • Schema Export: Exports the list fields to be able to import them into another list.

  • Schema Import: Imports the list fields that were previously created via an export from another JUNE list.

API

Here you can find the documentation of our list API. You also have the possibility to test the endpoints interactively to integrate them more efficiently into your application.

For each endpoint, you will find a button on the right side, where you can edit the request and test it with the send button. In the Response text field, the server response is displayed in the form of JSON.

IMAP Inbox

In the IMAP inbox, you will find the replies, as well as the soft and hard bounces for the particular email list.

The IMAP inbox will only work if you add an IMAP domain for the special sending address in the administration.

๐Ÿ’ก This is particularly relevant for cover letters, as here you have the opportunity to make personal contact after an automated email.

Set up IMAP domain

To enable receiving replies and bounces, please follow these steps:

  1. Navigate to Administration in the left sidebar.

  2. Select IMAP Domains from the top menu bar.

  3. Click on the Add button.

  4. Now enter the data of your IMAP domain and click Save.

  5. Now you can see your inbox in the respective email list.
