Configuring an outbound email account

Updated on August 4, 2022

Configure the predefined email accounts which Pega Customer Decision Hub uses to send out emails, including messages related to actions or campaigns. Optionally, you can also set up additional email accounts for action-related emails.

Note: Prepackaged connectors for email service providers (ESPs) Mailgun, SendGrid, and Mailjet are available on Pega Marketplace. Install the connectors to help reduce deployment time by automating the configuration of an email account.
  1. In App Studio, click SettingsChannelsEmail.
  2. Click the Edit icon by a predefined email account to configure it.
    By default, Pega Customer Decision Hub includes the following outbound email accounts:
    • Default - This account is used to send out most types of emails, including password reset emails, Email and Passbook Treatments in actions, and other internal and external notifications. It is not used for Campaign-related emails.
    • PegaMKT-Work - This account is used to send Campaign-related emails, including Campaign Suspended and Campaign Approved notifications.
    You must provide the required connection data for both accounts to ensure that emails to customers and internal users are properly delivered.
  3. Optional: If you want Email, Passbook and Multi Treatments in actions to be sent from a non-default email address, click Add new to add a new email account.
    Note: After configuring the new email account, select it as the delivery account for the Send Email, Send Passbook, and Send Multi shapes in the actions where you want to use the non-default email address for correspondence.
  4. Optional: In the Account Availability section, specify delivery time frames for email related to actions.
    Select one of the following options:
    • Always Available - The account is always available to deliver messages.
    • Specify Range - The account only delivers messages during the specified time range. Specify the following value for the time range:
      • From - Start value for the time range, for example, 9.00 AM
      • To - End value for the time range, for example, 7.00 PM
      • Time Zone - Time zone for the start and end time values. By default, Pega Customer Decision Hub uses the time zone of the current user.
      Note: Delivery time frames do not apply to emails which are not related to actions, for example, work object-related notification.
