Default Subscription Center: Can't submit form

(0) ShareShare

Posted on by Microsoft Employee

Dear Community!

Short version:

0285.Unbenannt.PNG

Our Subscription Center is online but throwing an error when the email gets submitted (with submit button) to unsubscribe.

Fiddler trace "Fiddler shows a SubmissionStatus=ContactIdIsUnknown"

Long version:

A few days ago we installed a partner portal and our default marketing site domain(org2bd3a164.s01.dyn365mktg.com) got overwritten with our partner portal URL(companyname.microsoftcrmportals.com).

From that point our Default Subscription center wasn't accessible anymore (because the updated URL pointed to nowhere).

I managed to do two things:

1) Redirect the Subscription Form-Request to a sub-site of our partnerportal(companyname.microsoftcrmportals.com/subscriptioncenter).

2) Remap the old URL with the new one and show our Subscription Center on a clean place (companyname.microsoftcrmportals.com/unsubscribe).

Add1: I would need to design a Portal Form and mimic the functionality of the Subscription Center (hence it's just a redirect to our partner portal)

Add2: It's throwing an error on "Submit". Fiddler trace "Fiddler shows a SubmissionStatus=ContactIdIsUnknown"

We actually do not have custom code and the subscription center and also the marketing form are default. I have no idea why this super basic functionality does not work. We just want to set "donotsendbulkemails" flag to the contact with the corresponding email. (Default behaviour & usecase of Subscription Center)

Please help me - we wanted to go live yesterday with our newsletter.

Kind regards,
Preblauer

    Dear Preblauer ,

    I reckon in this case you need to raise service request with Microsoft support team to resolve the issue.

    I found several solutions by myself:

    1) Change the type of the marketing form & marketing site to landing page. Disadvantage was that I had to insert an unvisible subscription page link to the marketing e-mail and I also had to put two additional mandatory fields on the form (Salutation/Gender) and Last Name.

    2) I was not really happy with that approach so I started to configure the page on the portal and ended up with new defined entitiy forms and webforms so mimic the subscription portal behaviour

    3) It could have ended there but I was still not satisfied at all so I rechecked everything and made dozens of changes and re-changes... in the end it's working now. Can't even tell what was wrong in detail.

    At least I learned a lot.

    Have a nice day
