There has been a strong desire by our users to display their email campaign content on their website. My first thought was that I could utilize the HTML preview via API and display that. However, I came across this post from a few years ago:
https://community.constantcontact.com/ask-the-community/post/embedding-my-newsletter-9DaZkOIKAcfey4s
Where it is stated "Embedding campaigns in a website is against our Terms and Conditions."
I'm looking for clarity here -- would rendering HTML via API be the same as embedding in this context.
Thank you
Is rendering HTML preview of a campaign a violation of TOS?
