How do you choose the right scheduled file generation option for your needs?
Publigo has various schedule delivery options designed for specific situations. In this article, we will help you choose the right option for your needs to take out the guesswork and send out your campaign as intended.
Note: Only 1 Schedule Delivery option can be used per campaign sheet.
For example, using the Row by row feature together with the recurring functionality (via Select hour/date) option is not possible and will cause conflicts.
To access the Schedule delivery feature, click More actions > Schedule Merge.
