List import via click trigger - automation is not executed

[Laura]

hello everyone

I have the following case: I have created a newsletter.
it is logically a draft because i still have to test and finalize it.
When I send it to all contacts, I want people to click on a link there - they will then land on a landing page.

I would now like every contact who clicks on this link to be imported into a list i already created. (There are 2 links in the newsletter, but this should only happen if they click on the second link. Not with the first one.)

Please find attached the screenshot. you can see I created an automation and added a link in the newsletter.

But when I now send a test-email, the automation is not executed and I don’t know why?

when I receive the email, the link is:
https://bhtih.r.bh.d.sendibt3.com/mk/cl/f/sh/1t6Af4Oj9PgrH6hsjZOJzhVYdpYf1K/396xELafRfKe

but thats something I cant change - because I in the backend I put in the link correctly…

it’s been driving me crazy for 3 hours now and i can’t find the bug…
thanks for your help!

Hi @Laura , thanks for posting on this community!

Instead of 'link starts with", could you try with « link contains » and then input « ratio.ch/ratio-editionen », without the https?

Thanks for your answer!
I tried it this way, but unfortunately it still doesn’t work…

I have adapted the automation with « regulärer ausdruck » without https - linking to the landing page, which is now created.
ratio.ch/landingPage/91fe710baa964d2f91e4099a7a64ee20

but the contacts are still not added to my list.

I just checked:
When I send the campaign as a real Newsletter (not testing) - it works!

but that is very suboptimal - because I need to test the auomation before I send the newsletter too 3000 of people… is there a solution to test the automation with a newsletter-draft?

Yes, maybe the best way to go would be to send a campaign to you only, to test what happens?
