A customer wants a list of subscribers who were sent an email within the past 12 months.

How shouldthis request be completed?

Show Suggested Answer Hide Answer
Suggested Answer: C

To get a list of subscribers who were sent an email within the past 12 months, you should query the Job and Sent data views. These data views contain detailed information about email sends and can be used to filter subscribers based on the send date.

SQL Query Example:

SELECT s.SubscriberKey FROM _Sent s JOIN _Job j ON s.JobID = j.JobID WHERE j.SendDate >= DATEADD(month, -12, GETDATE())

: Salesforce Data Views

Wait, why would you use 565 days? That seems off.

Running a tracking extract via the SOAP API seems like a valid approach, but I feel like it might be more complex than necessary.

I remember we discussed using the Tracking tab in Email Studio, but I can't recall if it gives a complete list like this.

I'm leaning towards option C as well. Querying the data views feels like the most reliable and efficient approach for this type of request.

The Tracking tab in Email Studio could work, but I'm not sure how scalable that would be for a large subscriber base. I think the database query route is the way to go here.

Option A with the measure calculation seems a bit convoluted. I'd probably try to avoid that if possible and stick to a more direct database query.

Hmm, I'm not sure about this one. I'd have to double-check the documentation to see if the SOAP API option is viable. Might be worth exploring that as well.

I'm not sure about the exact days, but isn't 565 days a bit too much for just 12 months?
