How to set up Dynamic Content
Step 1: Set Up Merge Tags for Dynamic Content
Create merge tags for any attribute you want to use for segmentation (e.g., Country, Industry).
Go to Admin > Integrations > Merge Tags.
Click Add Merge Tag.
Enter the attribute name using double curly brackets, like
{{Country}}.
Repeat for all attributes you plan to use
Step 2: Build Dynamic Segments
Create personalized segments based on merge tag conditions.
Add Dynamic Content
Select a content block.
In the Attributes panel, click Add Dynamic Content.
Under Variants, click the ⚙️ cog icon to add a new segment.
(Optional) Toggle on Hide default variant to remove the fallback content.
Step 3: Define Segment Rules
In the popup, choose Marketing Cloud Account Engagement (Pardot) as your MAP.
Name your segment (e.g., “Country is Canada”).
Use merge tag variables to define your condition.
Click Save.
Note: All dynamic segments for any given element must use the same variable.
For example, if I apply the Lead City variable to a segment for my text block element, all of my subsequent dynamic segments for that text block element must also use Lead City.
Step 4: Add Content for Each Segment
Choose a segment (e.g., Default, Country = Canada).
Enter content specific to that segment in the content block.
Default:
Country is Canada:
Step 5: Preview Dynamic Segments
Use Preview Mode to see how content appears for different segments.
Open Preview.
Toggle between variants (e.g., Default, Country is Canada) to confirm display.
Default:
Country is Canada:
