Import an HTML Email as a Template or Campaign

If you already have a trusted email design in HTML, you can paste it into the code editor and keep managing everything in Vendi Today.

Import as a template

1. Go to Marketing > Emails > Templates.
2. Click + New and choose a blank template.
3. When asked which editor to use, pick the Code Editor (the HTML option) rather than the drag-and-drop one.
4. Paste your HTML into the editor area.
5. Check the preview, then save and name the template.

Import as a campaign

1. Go to Marketing > Emails > Campaigns and create a new campaign.
2. Choose Blank Campaign instead of a template.
3. Select the Code Editor.
4. Paste your HTML and review the preview.

Make it ready to send

• Use full image addresses so pictures load for recipients.
• Replace fixed names with merge fields where you want personalization.
• Add an unsubscribe link or footer block if the design lacks one.
• Preview in desktop, tablet and mobile views, then send a test email.

A note on editors

HTML imported this way stays in the code editor. If you want drag-and-drop editing later, rebuild the design in the visual editor or use the import options that convert the layout.

Other import routes

You can also bring in a design from another email platform using the Email AI import, the Mailchimp import or the ActiveCampaign import.

Good to know: Inline CSS works best in email, because many inboxes ignore styles defined in a separate stylesheet.
