I’m a FileMaker developer creating custom solutions for my clients. How can I use Mail Designer 365 to offer attractive HTML emails directly from my FileMaker solution?
You need a Mail Designer 365 Design License to create email templates for your clients. You set up a separate project in Mail Designer 365 for each client and manage their templates there. If a client wants to regularly customize the templates themselves, they will also need a Design License.
For sending emails, each of your clients requires their own Mail Designer Sending License. Every client must have their own Mail Designer 365 sending plan.
