Vero’s Fusion functionality allows you to access your most accurate data when you need it.
With Fusion you can pull data from your own internal APIs or public API endpoints right before emails are sent, providing the accuracy and timeliness needed to deliver your customers a truly personalized experience.
Many of our customers have been using Fusion over the last few months and we’ve been delighted with the feedback. Today we’re excited to offer Fusion to all our customers!
Load data from its source
Vero’s Fusion uses APIs to access data where it originates: directly from internal databases or third-party platforms. Using Fusion follows a simple two-step process:
Connect an API endpoint
Add the URL of your external data source to an email using Vero’s Data Inspector. To enable loading individual, specific user and event data, Vero can pass identifying attributes with each API request (such as a user’s ID or email).
Add data to emails using Liquid
Data is loaded for access using the HTML templating language
Liquid. This enables you to access the full JSON object and insert
attributes (or HTML) into your email content, just this:
{{external.user_region}}
.
Example API endpoint
https://api.yoursite.com/people-you-may-know/{{user.id}}
Fusion provides the data accuracy and timeliness that enables a new level of personalization, ensuring your emails are being rendered on a truly one-to-one basis.
Email as a true extension of your product
Fusion leverages the data you use to power personal content on your website, in your application or across other customer-facing tools, enabling you to craft superior interactions off-site in your emails. Examples include:
Recommendations

Dynamic Data and Charts
