Litmus Email Previews app for Eloqua

With the Litmus Email Previews app, Eloqua users can run a preview test on their HTML without having to leave the Eloqua Email Editor.

NOTE: The Litmus Previews app for Eloqua is available for Enterprise plans.

Add the app from Oracle Cloud Marketplace

Sign in to your Eloqua account and select the Apps cloud icon in the right side panel. Select the Get more apps link to launch the Oracle Cloud Marketplace. Use the search bar to find the Litmus app.

Select the Litmus tile to see additional details and to add the app to your Eloqua account with the green Get App button in the upper right corner. You'll need to accept the Oracle Cloud Marketplace terms to continue with installing the app.

NOTE: The app is only installed for the specific user who adds it. Each Eloqua user needs to add the app in order to use it with their account.

Use the previews app

In your Eloqua Email Editor, choose an email project or create a new one. Select the Apps cloud icon on the right to expand your available apps. Select the Email testing: Inbox previews option.

You may need to enter your Litmus credentials, followed by authorization for Litmus previews to access your email HTML.

Once you've authorized Litmus, you'll see your previews load into the panel. You can view your preview history, manage your preview client list, and disconnect your Litmus account, all from the previews app panel.

NOTE: Previews created in Eloqua’s Design Editor (i.e. WYSIWYG, drag-and-drop) will exclude headers and footers, only rendering the email body. In addition, advanced CSS styling is not supported due to API limitations.

  • Preview history: Results from all tests via the Litmus Email Previews app in Eloqua are available in your Litmus account. This link opens the main Litmus app in another browser tab where you will see an archive of all previous tests run from the app.
  • Client selection: Your client choices in the Eloqua app mirror the selection in your main Litmus account. Use this link to access your email clients settings window in Litmus.
  • Disconnect account: Disconnect your Litmus credentials in the Eloqua app. You will need to sign in and authorize access again the next time you want to use the app.

Authorization details

When connecting the app, you grant permission for Litmus to access your Eloqua account. However, Litmus only uses the connection to get the content of the email you are currently trying to test.

Specifically, Litmus gets the HTML and subject line of the email being worked on. No other information that is stored anywhere within your Eloqua account is sent to Litmus.

In addition, no information is passed from your Litmus account to Eloqua other than the results of the email test that you requested.
