Data Relays

Anedot sends data relays for both Donation Pages and Lead Pages to Constant Contact.

Relay Behavior and Data Visibility

  • Once a relay is successfully sent, contact and campaign statistics are automatically updated in Constant Contact.

  • If specific List IDs were provided during setup, new contacts will populate those lists.

  • Contact activity and metrics can be viewed in two areas:

    • Performance Tab on your Constant Contact dashboard – for overall contact and campaign stats.

    • Contacts Tab – to view contacts either in a specific list or across all lists.
