Two New ESPs Now Connected to Dyspatch!
Sometimes I wonder, what would our world be like without one-click integrations?! Let’s not go down that rabbit hole 😨 Instead, let’s focus on the good news: If your organization uses Klaviyo or GetResponse to send emails, your workflow just got a heck of a lot smoother.
Similar to our other ESP integrations, essentially all you need to do is grab your API key from Klaviyo or GetResponse, plug it into Dyspatch when you’re exporting your template, and voilà!
With these two new integrations you can now export any email template you designed in Dyspatch directly to Klaviyo or GetResponse for sending—with a click or two of your mouse!
No more downloading HTML and importing it to Klaviyo or GetResponse, Dyspatch will take care of that, so you can spend your time doing things the machines can’t 😉
If you have any questions about these integrations, need help getting them set up, or need help with anything at all really, please contact our support team at support@dyspatch.io

Zapier Integration Makes Interactive Email 5,000+ Times More Powerful
Our interactive email functionality like Review in Email, Poll in Email, and NPS in Email just got a huge functional upgrade!
Previously, any data you collected from Apps in Email would be stored in a Google sheet. Which is fine, if you're just testing the waters with AMP email. But we knew that enterprise orgs would rather send that data to their CRM, or pipe it into a Slack channel for a more integrated approach
So we thought to ourselves:
“We could integrate our Apps in Email with 100 different popular tools… OR… we could integrate with Zapier!”
So we did just that! Now, any data you collect from your AMP emails can be sent to any of the 5,000+ apps that Zapier integrates with. For example:
- When someone fills out your NPS in Email, Zapier sends their score directly to your #NPS channel in Slack.
- When someone answers your Poll in Email, Zapier sends their responses to the user research team's email address.
- When someone gives you feedback through Review in Email, Zapier Tweets their star rating and review from your account.
With Apps in Email feeding data to Zapier, the email marketing world’s your oyster! We can’t wait to see how you leverage this powerful new integration.
If you have any questions about Zapier, or need help getting Apps in Email set up, please contact our support team at support@dyspatch.io

Introducing Review in Email, our Flexible, Interactive Product Review and Feedback App
Review surveys can be highly valuable and advantageous in gathering feedback from your recipients. They can be used to gain a better understanding on how your customers see and interact with your product or service. Through these surveys, you can gain valuable insight into what your customers think, so that you can pinpoint areas of improvements to better serve your customers more effectively and advantageously. But even with a quick couple-of-questions survey, it can be a challenge to gather responses.
This is where Dyspatch’s new Review in Email comes into play. With this innovative app, you can empower recipients to respond to a survey, directly in an email. This app can be used for a variety of use cases due to its agnostic design: a minimalistic star rating input and a textarea for users to add a quick description.

Get more flexibility and move faster with the Dyspatch Markup Language (DML)
Exciting news: We’ve made DML even more powerful for developers. Here’s how:
Dys-row background colors
Looking to change the color of only certain elements within your blocks, so you can better highlight your messaging? Now you can change dys-row colors directly in the visual editor! This gives you much more flexibility when it comes to template styling, reducing the need to create additional themes or blocks too. Plus, you’ll never have to worry about going off-brand, since the color palette is determined in the theme editor.
Dys-style in blocks
Fine-tuning your templates with custom styling has never been easier, now that you can add dys-style tags directly in your blocks. Rather than having to apply changes at the theme level, this update lets you hone in on only the blocks you want to customize with CSS, saving you time and making for much tidier templates in the future.
Dys-buttons letter-spacing
Does your brand have strict rules for letter spacing (i.e. tracking) that you want to keep consistent — even for buttons? No problem. With this latest update, you can change the letter spacing in dys-buttons, and ensure every email matches your branding guidelines to a T. Consistency is key, after all.
Easily change a block’s theme
Want to quickly add or remove a block from a theme? We hear you. Now you can skip the extra clicks it takes to get to the theme editor, and assign a block directly to a theme while you’re working on it. This update helps you get the technical side of things out of the way, so you can start designing faster.

Get more design flexibility and control with editable style elements
Looking to make minor design changes to your template elements, without building new blocks or implementing custom code?
With our latest update, you can define the customizability of each element inside your blocks through editable styles attributes. This improves the reusability of your blocks — since you can easily make changes to the text, color, and buttons as you go — while setting guardrails for elements that shouldn’t be altered.
To get started, you'll first need to define which elements you’d like to make customizable via editable, editable-fields, and editable-styles attributes. Once you've made these updates, you’ll be able to enjoy more design control, so you can make changes more efficiently than ever.
