FAQ - How do I include my own image in an Email for EIA?
There are two ways:
Method 1
-If the image you would like to add to you EIA email is on a website simple right click on that image and select "Copy Image Link".
-In the email template you are using (Marketing>Emails>Templates>+ New>Blank Template (or other)>Design Editor)
Drag the Image icon from the Elements Menu onto the Email where you would like the image
-On the Left Side, the menu will now have a section labeled "Link to", this is where you paste your "Copied Image Link"
-Your image will appear in your email now
***Please Note*** Using an external sources image link means that should the page in which you found the image changes, or they move the image elsewhere, your link is now broken and will not work. This will affect past emails if they are trying to be read after the link has been broken.
This is why I prefer:
Method 2
-Whatever the image is that you would like added to your EIA email is, save it to your computer, external hard drive or GotBackUp Cloud.
-On you EIA App Main page select "Media Storage" from the menu on the left side.
-Select the blue button in the top right corner "+New Upload">Upload File
-Navigate to where you saved your image and select "Open"
-Your file will upload into your Image Collection directly in your EIA App. There will be a progress bar popup in the lower right corner.
-Once Image is successfully uploaded drag the image Element into the email where you want it and then you can either:
A-Click on the pencil icon in the Box labeled "Image" and upload it directly from your Media Library -or-
B-Navigate back to Media Storage and in the bottom right corner of your image there will be 3 vertical dots, click on that and select "Get Link". This will automatically copy the link for you. Navigate back to your email template, click on the image place holder, on the right side paste the link into the section labeled "Link to".
-Your image will appear in your email now.
