Important Notes

  • These brand settings apply only to new assets if the settings are unlocked.

    • Older assets will not update retroactively unless the settings are locked and the asset is reopened.

    • To apply these changes to live assets, you must resync your email or landing page from Knak to your Marketing Automation Platform (MAP).

  • To confirm tracking is working:

    • Create a landing page.

    • Go to the Info tab.

    • Check the Tracking section under "Header."
