Email subject and preview text for stakeholder approval
under review
Adam Reynolds
We are pretty new to Stripo (we love it) and we are trying to establish our workflow/approval process as we adopt it, moving from building in MailChimp. We want to do all of our design and content edits within Stripo so that we only export once to our ESP and not send a test from our ESP (but rather rely on the Stripo share page). This requires an adjustment for our stakeholders—they can visualize the email with the public preview page, but they can't see what the email subject will be or what the preview text will look like in the email client. If there was a way to add a subject (as it is different than the internal naming of the email) and preview text, that would be amazing (see my crude mockup). On this note (perhaps a separate Canny?), it would be great to share the preview with one or more stakeholders so they have a unique URL where they could check the approval button, if it is good to go. Thanks!

Would love to be able to set and read both subject and preview text via API as well.

Hello Adam. Quick note on the subject line and preview text: both are actually already visible on the public Share page. When you open the shared link, the subject and preheader are displayed at the top of the preview. If you're not seeing them, make sure those fields are filled in under the email settings in the editor.
As for the approval workflow, you're right that it's not as smooth as it could be. Right now, the best workaround is for stakeholders to leave a pinned comment on the email to signal their sign-off.
The good news: a proper Review/Approval flow (with an approve button for external reviewers, notifications, and statuses) is on our roadmap. We'll keep this Canny post in mind as we work through that epic.
