Custom Domain for Webview Page in Mailing

English Campaigns
1

Hi there,

I’d like the Webview (accessed via the « View in Browser » link) of my mailing to be available under my custom domain, rather than the current cryptic URL (e.g., https://a5kco.r.bh.d.sendibt3.com/**/*).

Is this possible? If so, could you guide me on how to set it up?

Thanks in advance!

Best,
Simon

Hello @rluser

Yes it is possible, but requires a little development. It works very well on my side. I give you some ideas for your code :wink:

  • Sending transactional emails with the API and sending custom fields to brevo {{first_name}} {{url message_id}} etc…

  • Saving custom fields in your database with a new record for each new message_id

  • Creating a unique identifier for the url $message_id=Jenh5AzV88qQQVCsMbG4eWgGmyRrD4u3zY6KFZw1dCVdtTKD4R

example of recovery with http get https://www.mysite.com/message.php?message_id=Jenh5AzV88qQQVCsMbG4eWgGmyRrD4u3zY6KFZw1dCVdtTKD4R

  • PDO Select / message_id query and editing your message.php page either in retrieving the template from the database. If you have only one response template, its html code can be edited directly on your message.php page. Which is much simpler

Good luck! :grinning:

Hey Phil,

doesn’t sound to easy…

I know this from other tools and thought that this should actually be possible. Can someone confirm whether this is not possible or if this feature is being worked on?

Other providers offer the option of setting your own (sub)domain as the base URL (via CNAME record), both for “View in Browser” links and for tracking links.

To be honest, it is rather unprofessional that Brevo still does not provide this option.

I would be interested in Brevo’s arguments.

Is anyone from Brevo Team reading this and can confirm whether this is not possible or if this feature is being worked on?

Yes, it’s possible to serve the Webview of your mailing under your custom domain instead of the default cryptic URL provided by your email marketing service. This usually involves setting up a custom tracking domain or branded domain in your email service provider’s settings

Does not seem possible with Brevo…
