Launch Campaign...

[colin]

Hi there,

I'm using the C# sample code to see how to launch a Campaign. Using the sample code, the campaign is launched. However, when I go in my web browser to that campaign, it says that the campaign "You didn't complete all the pre-launch steps...". Apparently the scheduled step is not set.

this is the C# code that is being used:

                    createEmailCampaignArgs objeCampaignArgs = new createEmailCampaignArgs();
                    EmailCampaign objeCampaign = new EmailCampaign();
                    objeCampaign.name = strName;
                    objeCampaign.type = strType ;
                    objeCampaign.template_id = iTemplateID ;
                    objeCampaign.from_label = strFromLabel;
                    objeCampaign.mail_date = Convert.ToDateTime (DateTime.Now.ToString("s")); //Date should be in ISO 8601 format
                    objeCampaign.send_friend = true;
                    objeCampaign.redirect_url = strRedirectURL;
                    
                    objeCampaign.template_idSpecified = true;
                    objeCampaign.contents = objeCampaignContent;
                    
                    //Set required parameters.
                    objeCampaignArgs.session_id = _sSessionId;
                    objeCampaignArgs.email_campaign = objeCampaign;
                    
                    //Try to create the campaign. 
                    iCampaignID = objVR.createEmailCampaign(objeCampaignArgs);

I'm looking to be able to fully launch a campaign from the API.

Thanks, colin

Nevermind.

It seems to work now, although I'm not sure why.

good to know it's already working.
