Subscribers are email address owners who can receive an email campaign, auto-responder, transactional email from you (the Octeth user). No matter how many subscribers you have, you can store them in just one or many subscriber lists.

Subscribers have;

Subscribers are stored inside subscriber lists in Octeth. Each list is 100% isolated and each one of these lists can have different attributes, auto responders, segments, etc.

There are many different ways for adding new subscribers into your list:

Octeth will monitor your outgoing email campaigns, auto responders and transactional emails and register incoming events related to your subscribers.

You can see the list of events monitored by Octeth above.

In order to see the list of subscribers that belong to a subscriber list or segment, login to your user area and click “Lists” on the top menu. Go to the dashboard of any subscriber list you have created.

Click “Browse Subscribers” link which can be found under “Subscriber Actions” drop down menu as shown above.

On the browse page, you will see the entire list of subscribers that belong to the list you are in.

If you want to filter your audience based on their attributes or activities, simply click the filter row:

Once you click the filter row, you will see a section where you can narrow down the list of subscribers by applying filters. This section is quite similar to the segment rules area. You can add multiple filter rules, link them with AND or OR operators and then apply these rules to the list by clicking “APPLY FILTER” button.

On the list, you can show/hide specific columns by clicking “Display’ drop down menu, change the sorting or navigate between list pages.

By clicking “Export Results” link on the toolbar, you can export the list of subscribers to your computer in CSV format. Once you click “Export Results” link, you will be redirected to the export dashboard. On this dashboard, you can see your previous export requests and download them:

When you click an email address in the list, you will be redirected to the persona card of the subscriber.

Persona Card is the special page which shows everything related to the clicked subscriber:

On the persona card, you can see the attributes of your subscriber including standard fields and custom fields. If you click “Activity” tab on the top right corner, you will see the list of activities detected so far (opens, clicks, etc.)

Once you click the “Export Subscribers” option as shown above, Octeth will ask you what audience to export:

You can choose all active subscribers, suppressed or unsubscribed subscribers or a specific segment subscribers to export.

You can generate your export data file in CSV, XML or tab delimited format.

You can also choose what fields to export. To choose multiple fields, hold your “control” key while clicking on them.

Once you click “Export Subscribers” button, the export process will be queued and you will be redirected to the data export dashboard.

Adding new subscribers to your list is pretty straight forward. Click “Add Subscribers” link under “Subscriber Actions” drop down menu:

Octeth will ask you how you would like to proceed with new subscriber import process:

All of these options have similar process, therefore, we will explain you how to import a new audience using “Copy and Paste” method. You can use these instructions on other import options too.

Once you choose the “Copy and Paste” method, the first step is getting the list of new subscribers data from you. Simply paste your CSV data to the text area and choose how your CSV data structured.

When you click “Next” button, Octeth will ask you to map import data fields with system subscriber fields:

You can map import data fields to a system field by using drop down lists as shown above. If you don’t want to import a specific field, simply choose “Ignore this field” option from the list for that specific field.

Once this is done, choose where to import the new data. You can import the data as “active” subscribers into your list. Alternatively, you can import the data to your suppression lists.

If you check “Update subscriber information” checkbox, when a duplicate email address exists in the list, the information of that duplicate subscriber will be updated with the ones included in the import data.

If you check “Do not send opt-in confirmation”, the double opt-in settings of the subscriber list will be ignored and new subscribers will be imported in active mode.

If you check “Trigger auto responders, journeys, etc.” checkbox, journeys and auto resopnders will be checked and triggered for each new subscriber imported to the list.

Once you click “Next” button, the import request will be queued and processed shortly. You can either stay on the progress screen or leave it. The import process will continue in the backend.

You can remove your active subscribers, suppressed, idle, or specific email addresses from your list by using the “Remove Subscribers” section under “Subscriber Actions” drop down menu.

This feature is a convenient way of getting rid of a group of common subscribers from your list quickly.

Your subscribers can unsubscribe from your list(s) in various ways:

Unsubscription requests are handled automatically by Octeth and once an unsubscription request is received, Octeth follows the following procedure:

Octeth comes with built-in subscribe (and unsubscribe) forms. This feature gives you a simple way of generating web forms and publishing your website pages.

On your list dashboard, click “Create Website Form” button on the top right:

On the website form page, you can customize your form settings, show/hide fields, change the theme, and generate the HTML code to publish on your website pages:

There are many different and feature-rich third-party web forms, sales funnel services, CRM solutions, etc. To make the integration convenient for you, Octeth includes “Inbound Webhook” feature. With the help of inbound webhooks or API, you can add new subscriber to your lists instantly.
