WEBVTT 00:00:00.000 --> 00:00:05.533 Hi! Welcome to Circle. During the past year, the Circle team has been working away 00:00:05.533 --> 00:00:12.333 and quietly added several new features in the last few releases up to the latest 4.7 version. 00:00:12.333 --> 00:00:21.899 The three main focus areas for the new features are Security, Efficiency, and Email and PDF on demand enhancements. 00:00:21.900 --> 00:00:26.600 This video will quickly introduce these new Circle features. 00:00:26.600 --> 00:00:31.033 In the security area, there are several important additions. 00:00:31.033 --> 00:00:40.633 Improved support for the European GDPR regulations have been implemented including the ability to export and delete recipient data. 00:00:40.633 --> 00:00:51.299 From the Open/Organize list, on the relevant campaign row, you can find the Manage Recipient option for this project. 00:00:51.300 --> 00:01:01.000 You can select records based on the XMPieRecipientKey, or any of the project ADORs. 00:01:01.000 --> 00:01:04.900 If you select to export, you will receive an email like this 00:01:04.900 --> 00:01:10.733 that you can forward to the data controller who requested the information held about this recipient. 00:01:10.733 --> 00:01:15.099 Of course, the delete option removes the data from the system. 00:01:15.100 --> 00:01:22.633 In addition to individual projects, you can find this option under the File menu: Account Manage Recipient. 00:01:22.633 --> 00:01:31.599 This option allows you to select recipient data from across multiple campaigns in the same uProduce account. 00:01:31.600 --> 00:01:39.800 Communication between Circle and the Circle agent installed on your uProduce server has been upgrade to TLS v1.2 00:01:39.800 --> 00:01:43.100 to provide a higher level of security. 00:01:43.100 --> 00:01:48.700 An option to create automatically create a secure recipient ID has also been added. 00:01:48.700 --> 00:01:54.900 For many personalized websites, we see the recipient ID set to the recipients firstname and lastname. 00:01:54.900 --> 00:01:59.133 This is fine in many cases, but when personal data will be shown on the website, 00:01:59.133 --> 00:02:05.399 it is possible that someone could guess the name of another person in the campaign and see their information. 00:02:05.400 --> 00:02:13.966 To prevent that, using a secure id in the URL makes it nearly impossible to guess someone else’s personalized URL. 00:02:13.966 --> 00:02:19.466 The option to use HTTPS on your personalized websites has been added. 00:02:19.466 --> 00:02:24.899 In the library when defining the website, you can choose to enable HTTPS. 00:02:24.900 --> 00:02:33.300 You will need to have an SSL certificate installed on your XMPL server. You can check this and other requirements here. 00:02:33.300 --> 00:02:43.433 With Circle v4.7 and XMPL v3, you can also configure user authentication or password protection to the personalized websites. 00:02:43.433 --> 00:02:50.666 There is a separate video here in Campus that demonstrates how to use this new feature. 00:02:50.666 --> 00:02:54.632 Duplicating projects is another handy feature. 00:02:54.633 --> 00:02:59.133 Many of the projects we create in Circle are used again later on. 00:02:59.133 --> 00:03:07.366 For example, an Independence Day sales promotion might be used again at Halloween – but with different graphics or offers. 00:03:07.366 --> 00:03:12.666 In recognition of this, the Circle team added an option to duplicate projects. 00:03:12.666 --> 00:03:21.132 When you duplicate the project, you have control over what elements are copied making it much faster to setup your future campaigns. 00:03:21.133 --> 00:03:28.366 Again, there is a separate video in Campus showing more about the duplication feature. 00:03:28.366 --> 00:03:35.199 Circle offers several API methods that can also help efficiency by automating common tasks. 00:03:35.200 --> 00:03:41.566 There are a series of new training videos demonstrating how to use the Circle APIs. 00:03:41.566 --> 00:03:47.199 Remember that using the Circle APIs may require an additional license fee with XMPie, 00:03:47.200 --> 00:03:54.066 so check with your XMPie Sales Representative before developing applications with the Circle API. 00:03:54.066 --> 00:04:01.499 Email enhancements include the ability to track different links in the email when using XMPie Email Services. 00:04:01.500 --> 00:04:08.000 The Cheat Sheet for Email shows how you can add the xmp-tracking-action parameter to each link 00:04:08.000 --> 00:04:14.166 so that your reports can identify which link was clicked by the recipient. 00:04:14.166 --> 00:04:19.232 Also, new in Circle is the XMPie Email Service account information. 00:04:19.233 --> 00:04:23.333 From the file menu you can select the Email Service option. 00:04:23.333 --> 00:04:31.999 Here you can see how many credits you have remaining, total amount sent, download detailed reports and buy more credits. 00:04:32.000 --> 00:04:35.566 The email editor has also had some improvements. 00:04:35.566 --> 00:04:44.832 Most notable among them is the ability to select graphic ADORs via the user interface or to add static graphics. 00:04:44.833 --> 00:04:49.833 Previously, you needed to enter code view to do this. 00:04:49.833 --> 00:04:59.299 PDF on demand is a handy feature to provide a personalized PDF for recipients to download from an email or personalized web page. 00:04:59.300 --> 00:05:04.233 The type of PDF file that is created is now Interactive PDF. 00:05:04.233 --> 00:05:12.866 This means that you can include interactive features in the PDF like links, bookmarks, buttons, videos, audio, and more. 00:05:12.866 --> 00:05:21.066 There is a separate video here in Campus that shows some of these interactive features you can add to the Interactive PDF. 00:05:21.066 --> 00:05:26.699 Also, there is an option to now keep a copy of the PDF that is generated for the recipient – 00:05:26.700 --> 00:05:30.533 perhaps for some administrative or record keeping purpose. 00:05:30.533 --> 00:05:40.133 First, create an output destination on your uProduce server, and then you can select it on the PDF on Demand touchpoint in Circle. 00:05:40.133 --> 00:05:47.366 To name the file you will need to use an ADOR object that is unique for each recipient, or the PDF will get overwritten. 00:05:47.366 --> 00:05:51.399 Then, you can select the output destination. 00:05:51.400 --> 00:05:56.833 As you can see there are a lot of new and useful features added to Circle in the past year. 00:05:56.833 --> 00:06:00.899 Hopefully, the Circle team will continue their work in future.
