FAQ

Questions about Trigger API Campaign.

What does the Trigger API Campaign action do in Braze?

Fires an API-triggered campaign (designed and reviewed in Braze UI) at a specified user set with optional trigger_properties merged into the templates. The recommended pattern for production messaging — keeps content review in Braze, just invokes from the workflow.

What inputs does Trigger API Campaign require?

Required: Campaign ID, Recipients (JSON array). Every input accepts a static value or a variable from any upstream node in your workflow.

Can I use dynamic inputs from earlier workflow nodes?

Yes. Any field on this action can pull values from upstream nodes, whether that's a form response, a trigger payload, an AI output, or a lookup result.

What happens if Braze returns an error?

The workflow pauses on the failed node, the error message is captured in the run log, and you can retry the run with one click. Auto-retry policies are configurable per workflow with exponential backoff up to 5 attempts.

Does Trigger API Campaign support batch operations?

Yes. Run Trigger API Campaign inside a Loop node to process arrays. Tiny Command handles Braze's rate limits automatically so you don't have to throttle manually.
