In the HTTP request object, it is possible to send data to an external system. This can be done as a request per customer or a selection of customers per request. For the latter example, the Smarty solution is required.
Below is an example flow in which $customerSelection can be used:
The $customerSelection can be accessed using a foreach statement. Please see the example below:
Foreach example with $customerSelection
{{strip}}
[
{{foreach from=$customerSelection item=customerItem name=customerLoop}}
{
"id": "{{$customerItem.id}}",
"email": "{{$customerItem.emailaddress}}",
"firstname": "{{$customerItem.firstname}}",
"address": "{{$customerItem.address}}",
"hash": "{{$customerItem.customerOption.E11}}",
"campaignOption": "{{$customerItem.campaignOption.F11}}"
}
{{if !$smarty.foreach.customerLoop.last}},{{/if}}
{{/foreach}}
]
{{/strip}}
Output:
[
{
"id": "1",
"email": "customer1@domain.com",
"firstname": "Anton",
"address": "Amersfoortseweg",
"hash": "6d5b53d0-140a-11ee-be56-0242ac120002",
"campaignOption": "Website"
},
{
"id": "2",
"email": "customer2@domain.com",
"firstname": "William",
"address": "Kalkoenstraat",
"hash": "869420fc-140a-11ee-be56-0242ac120002",
"campaignOption": "Store"
},
{
"id": "3",
"email": "customer3@domain.com",
"firstname": "Carl",
"address": "Krommestraat",
"hash": "8d3d95d2-140a-11ee-be56-0242ac120002",
"campaignOption": "Website"
}
