Frequently asked questions

Ceven uses OAuth 2.0 to connect to your Omnisend account securely. When you initiate the connection, you are redirected to the Omnisend authorization page where you grant specific permissions. Once you approve, Omnisend sends a secure token back to Ceven. We store this token using industry standard encryption and use it to make API calls on your behalf. You never have to share your password with us, and you can revoke the access token at any time from your Omnisend account settings under the integrated apps section, which immediately kills the connection.
Yes. For large scale changes, Ceven utilizes the Omnisend Batch API. Instead of sending thousands of individual requests which would trigger rate limits, the agent bundles these updates into a single batch operation. This allows you to update thousands of contact properties or import a massive product catalog asynchronously. The agent monitors the batch progress in the background and can notify you once the operation is complete or if specific records failed to process, providing a detailed log of any errors encountered during the batch run.
Omnisend imposes strict rate limits on their API to ensure platform stability. Depending on your plan, you may encounter limits on the number of requests per second or per minute. Ceven manages this by implementing an exponential backoff strategy. If the agent receives a 429 Too Many Requests response, it will automatically pause and retry the request after a short delay. For extremely large datasets, the agent will automatically switch to the Batch API to minimize the number of calls and avoid hitting these limits entirely during your workflow execution.
Ceven focuses on the data and trigger layer of Omnisend rather than the visual design. While the agent can trigger a specific template to be sent to a user or add a user to a flow that uses a template, it cannot visually design a new email layout or drag and drop elements within the Omnisend editor. You should design your templates and flows within the Omnisend dashboard first, and then use Ceven to control who enters those flows and what custom data is injected into the emails via custom properties.
The agent acts as a bridge. It pulls the current product list from your ecommerce store and uses the List Products and Create Batch tools to ensure Omnisend has a matching record. If a product is deleted from your store, Ceven can trigger the Delete Product action in Omnisend to prevent customers from receiving emails for items that are no longer for sale. This ensures that your automated product recommendations are always accurate and based on your real time inventory levels without requiring manual exports.
Yes. The agent can update the contact status for both email and SMS channels. When a user opts out through your store or a third party tool, Ceven can immediately update the contact record in Omnisend to reflect that status. This is critical for maintaining compliance with laws like GDPR and TCPA. The agent ensures that the unsubscribe flag is set correctly so that Omnisend does not send any further communications to that user, regardless of which automation flow they might have been eligible for.
Ceven connects to the primary account associated with the OAuth token. If you have multiple stores linked to one Omnisend account, the agent can manage contacts and products across those stores as long as they share the same account ID. However, if you have entirely separate Omnisend accounts for different brands, you will need to connect each account individually within the Ceven dashboard. Once connected, you can build workflows that move data between different Omnisend accounts if your business model requires a cross brand customer view.
Ceven uses a Create or Update logic to prevent workflow failures. Instead of simply attempting an update which would return an error for a missing contact, the agent first checks for the existence of the contact. If the contact is not found, it automatically triggers the create contact flow using the provided details. This ensures that your marketing lists grow organically as new customers interact with your store, and you never miss an opportunity to capture a lead just because they were not already in your database.
