Business users can personalize the content of e-mails that they send out as part of a campaign by displaying the values of profile properties in the e-mail body (done through the ATG Outreach HTML e-mail editor). However, an Insert Page Fragment option is also available that allows them to include a JSP fragment in an e-mail. This feature lets them personalize an e-mail in any way that is possible through JSP code, as well as giving them a quick way to add commonly used elements such as a company address or disclaimer.

The Insert Page Fragment feature appears on the Outreach menu in the e-mail editor, and instructions for using it are provided in Inserting Page Fragments in the ATG Outreach Guide for Business Users. However, for any JSP fragment to be available for use, you must perform the following configuration steps:

  1. Create the JSP fragment as needed. Note that ATG Outreach provides some samples that you can edit and use as appropriate.

  2. In the ATG Business Control Center, create a new project and add a folder asset to it that you will use to store the JSP fragments. You can use an existing folder or create a new one. Select /atg/epub/file/ConfigFileSystem as the repository and Folder as the asset type.

  3. Add a new servlet asset to the project. Select ProcessData as the repository and Servlet as the asset type, and then click Create New.

  4. Provide a name for the servlet.

  5. In the Parent Folder field, select the folder you added in step 2.

  6. Select Using a JSP File Asset and then click Browse to locate the JSP fragment you want to use. (Note that you can specify as many JSP fragments as you want to make available.) Click Add in the Search tab when you have selected the JSPs.

  7. Click Apply.

  8. Complete the deployment task for the project so that the new assets are deployed.

For more information on working with projects and assets, refer to the ATG Content Administration Guide for Business Users.
