Business value

With Dynamics 365 Marketing, you can create custom triggers in development or preproduction environments to securely test the intended behavior before you use them in production for live marketing journeys and campaigns. You can then move the triggers to a production environment, so long as they are in a draft state.

With this release, you can now use the concept of managed solutions in Dynamics 365 to simplify and automate moving triggers between environments, even when they're in a published state. The ability to move published triggers enables you to align your testing workflow with your application lifecycle management process. Dynamics 365 Marketing automatically takes care of packaging the triggers and any related metadata when you export and import the solutions.

Feature details

This feature allows you to:

  • Move triggers between environments quickly and easily using solutions.
  • Migrate triggers between all your environments in any state.
  • Manage version control and do cross-environment trigger updates to ensure that the right triggers are being used in your journeys.
