Momentum is a powerful Mail Transfer Agent from SparkPost. Momentum was previously known as Message Systems. It is the same software that powers Sparkpost email delivery service.

You can download and install Momentum on your own servers and you can use that as your email delivery service.

Tracked events

Blueshift will automatically receive impression data for the emails sent using the Momentum integration and associate so that you can track performance at the campaign and customer level and apply the latest campaign engagement data to trigger next steps in the customer journey.

For information about setting up your Momentum account, see the Momentum documentation.

  3. You can also go to Email Apps and select Momentum.
  4. Click Configure to view all the configured adapters.

    Username Specify the Momentum username.
    Password Specify the Momentum password.
    X:Binding Specify the value for the X:Binding header.

    From Address Specify the sender's email address.  
    Reply To Address Specify the email address to which a customer can reply. 
    BCC Specify the email addresses of people who should receive the copy of the email that your customers receive. Use comma to provide multiple email addresses. For example:
    johndoe@blueshift.com,janedoe@blueshift.com,doejohn@blueshift.com
    By default, our platform sends a copy of the email to the email addresses that you specify. If you want to include the email addresses in the BCC field of the email, drop us an email on support@blueshift.com.
    Bounce Domain

    Specify the bounce domain that you added in Momentum.

    Specify the bounce domain in this format: bounces@hostname-under-CNAME-DNS-setting-in-Momentum.

    Adapter setup fails if this is not provided.

    Whitelabel host name (CNAME)

    Specify the domain that will be used to mask links for tracking purposes.

    The domain must be setup as a CNAME record in your DNS. You can find it under the CNAME DNS setting in Momentum.

    The CNAME must map to either links.getblueshift.com (US or Rest of the world) or links.eu.blueshift.com (EU region) based on your Blueshift login region. SSL is required for any link masking domains. If you are unsure which domain to setup in your DNS please contact your CSM or support@getblueshift.com.

    • If you do not specify a value here, and you have set up Whitelabeling for your account, then the domain setup in Account Settings will be used.
    • If you have not set up Whitelabeling for your account and you do not specify a value here, the Blueshift domain will be used for tracking.
  8. Click Save to add the adapter.

Next steps

  1. Create an Email template for your messages.
  2. In your campaign journey, add an Email trigger. On the Email tab of the trigger, go to Send Settings and specify Momentum as the App and select the adapter that you just created.
