FTP-based data synchronization is not available by default (additional charge), contact your account manager to get a quote. To have a data synchronization set up, you need to have an active MailUp account (not a free trial). Should you need any further information or custom integrations please do not hesitate to contact your account manager. |
FTPZIP is a MailUp application that allows to send an email message to a defined list of recipients by simply uploading a ZIP archive to an FTP an sFTP location (via FTP:21 or SFTP:sFTP only, using port 22).
This features is typically used by advanced users that have a need for configuring and sending a campaign without accessing the MailUp web application, and without using the MailUp APIs.

Depending on what you are trying to accomplish, you can enclose in the ZIP archive different kinds of files.
The only mandatory file is the one called settings.xml. The information enclosed in settings.xml allows to determine the Operations Mode and the details needed for each different operation mode.

- (FULL) Create and send an email message to a list of recipients.
- (SEND) Send an already defined email message to a list of recipients.

In case FTPZIP executes a Transactional Send, the personal data of subscribers listed in the Recipients.csv file (details here) aren't imported in MailUp Account Database.
Email message are sent using MailUp Transactional API. Details about how to enable and configure Transactional Mailing on a MailUp Account are here.
When FTPZIP works in this way:
- Subscribers listed in Recipients.csv are subscribed to MailUp Account Database, but personal data aren't imported. It isn't a real Data Sync.
For this reason in Recipients.csv you can add up more dynamic fields as your account allows (see CSV File Format). - Personal data of the subscribers listed in Recipients.csv file can be used as Dynamic Fields in the newsletter, if the use of Dynamic Fields is enabled for the account and the Newsletter (see Settings.xml and )
- To work is necessary that the SMTP+ functionality is enabled for the MailUp Account.
- FTPZIP manages only immediate Transactional Mailing. Schedulation of Transactional Mailing isn't foreseen at the moment.
...
The ZIP archive has to be uploaded in the FTP subfolder “/import_zip” that can be accessed from your FTP root path.
You can use FTP protocol (port 21) or Use SFTP protocol (port 22).
