Override URL/ Embed Code for PersistIQ

Generate URL and embed code for your images and videos that are compatible with PersistIQ and directly plug them into the Email builder on the PersistIQ platform. 

For our demonstration, we are sharing a personalised image in an email that hyperlinks to a video landing page.

Let’s begin by creating a new campaign. If you are new to creating Nexweave campaigns, you can have a look out our campaign documentation here





1. Start by navigating to Campaigns and click on Create New Campaign.
2. Set the Campaign Name and select the Campaign Type. You can read more about the available campaign types here.

However, you may choose either Image or Video campaigns, based on your preferences.

3. Next select the Image and Video templates you would like to employ for this campaign.



For our demonstration we have selected:

• Image template : Welcome Message - Play
• Video template : Welcome to the family
• Video thumbnail : Welcome Message - Play
