Upload Kombai Generated Code to ESPs/MAPs

Kombai-generated code is compatible with most popular marketing platforms. For images, we support the use of external assets and Base64 embedded images.

In external assets, we store all images used in the design inside an assets folder and use the relative path of those images inside the code. When you download the code, images are also downloaded along with it.

Under Base64 embedded images, we use Base64 strings to encode the images used in the design. Base64 (opens in a new tab) is an encoding process to convert binary data into ASCII characters for easy transmission and storage of data.

In this guide, we will cover how you can send Kombai-generated HTML emails through various ESPs/MAPs in both methods. Here's the list of ESPs/MAPs we are covering:

• Klaviyo
• Mailchimp
• HubSpot
• Constant Contact
• ActiveCampaign
• Campaign Monitor
• Moosend
• Brevo
• Zoho Campaigns
• Mailjet
• GetResponse
