Firstly, create a new API key in Omnisend for LateShipment.com and copy the key itself. Be sure to allow custom permissions for the API key. Under Permissions, you will need to check “Events”. If you’ve previously created your API key, you will need to additionally ensure this permission is enabled.
'Save'.
Once this is done, log in to your Omnisend account. You will find the events listed below available as event trigger metrics. Use these metrics to start building automation workflows.
IMPORTANT: Once email flows have been set up in Omnisend, head back to your LateShipment.com account to turn the toggle ON for the required events so we can start triggering the flows.
