Northern Trail Outfitters is using a triggered send to send customers their order confirmations. Their commerce platform provides a JSON payload for order details.

What should they use to format the JSON within the email?

ASSJS platform function ParseJSON

BTransformJSON() AMPscript Function

CBuildRowSetFromJSON() AMPscript Function

DParseJSON content block with Content Builder

Show Suggested Answer

Suggested Answer: D

To format the JSON payload from their commerce platform within the email, Northern Trail Outfitters should use the BuildRowSetFromJSON() AMPscript function. The BuildRowSetFromJSON() AMPscript function is a function that allows marketers to parse a JSON string and return a rowset object that can be used to display data within an email message. The BuildRowSetFromJSON() AMPscript function can handle nested JSON objects and arrays.

Option C? BuildRowSetFromJSON()? Sounds like something straight out of a Harry Potter spell book. I'll pass on that one, thanks.

I'm not sure why anyone would want to use SSJS when AMPscript is right there. Option A seems like overkill. Let's stick with the platform-native solution.

You know, I bet there's a way to get the JSON payload to do the hokey pokey if you really wanted to. But for this question, I think I'll just go with the boring ol' TransformJSON() option.

I'm not sure, but I think D) ParseJSON content block with Content Builder could also work well for this scenario.

I agree with Toshia. TransformJSON() would be the best option for formatting the JSON within the email.

Wait, we can use Content Builder to parse JSON? That's news to me. I'm going to have to look into that option D. Sounds like it could be a real time-saver.

I think option B is the way to go. TransformJSON() is specifically designed for this kind of task, and it's part of the AMPscript toolkit that Northern Trail Outfitters is already using.
