SFMC - Dynamic optimization - Known issues

Please review our known issues before provisioning or deploying a dynamic optimization experiment

Updated over a week ago

Certain special characters in variants cause code snippet errors

Using the following characters within Phrasee variants in a dynamic optimization experiment can cause errors in the JavaScript code snippet that prevent the email from deploying.

Refrain from using the following characters in Salesforce Marketing Cloud Dynamic Optimization experiments:

  • "

  • {

  • }

  • <

  • >

No matter what language you have in your variants, please ensure you're conducting previews and test sends before sending your live campaign.

It is best practice per Salesforce Marketing Cloud engineers to send a live deployment to a test or seed list before deploying a live email to a subscriber list.

Altering vetted scientific testing parameters

Ensure you strictly adhere to the testing parameters you discussed with your Customer Success Manager in order to ensure optimization occurs properly.

This includes testing with the agreed upon:

  • Audience size

  • Number of language variants

  • Selection metric

  • Dynamic optimization drawer settings

  • Testing window

Altering any one of these parameters without first vetting the changes in methodology with Phrasee may adversely impact optimization.
