Question

MailerLite error: The app returned "Sender email must be authenticated before you can send from this address."


I am Triggering the zap when some user makes a comment on my Wordpress post.

I do want to execute a action in which that comment will get send to a campaign from mailerlite.

I thought the best way will be to draft a campaign first and in next step i will send that campaaign.

But while drafting the campaign - I have added a static email in Action ‘Email from address’  and got the following error :

-----------------------------------------

Failed to create a campaign in MailerLite (1.6.3)

The app returned "Sender email must be authenticated before you can send from this address. (and 1 more error)".

Hi @jaspreet 

To give us more context, post screenshots with how your Zap steps are outlined and configured in EDIT mode so we can see the field types and field descriptions.

Thanks Troy for your reply please check the screenshots

@jaspreet 

You may want to use a different approach.

Try using this Zap action: MailerLite - Create/Update Subscriber

There you can specify a Subscriber Group.

In MailerLite, you would then configure an Automation to send an email when a Subscriber joins a Group.

FYI...

Check the field description for guidance. (more)

Make sure to remove any line breaks in the input field.

THANKS for your reply ,

But i would like to convey that i am not going to  create OR update any subscriber in the Mailerlite. 

I have to send a Email to existing subscribers list (Group) , whenever a comment is made on wordpress website. I can create a campaign in mailerlite and send that as well. 

The (Email from address) will be same as its on mailerlite’s Account but that is giving a issue.

If there are 100 comments made in 1 day on a post, then you want to send out 100 emails to the MailerLite group?

@Troy Tessalone  Yes actually that is the Requirement, but usually there will not be 100 and probably 5-10 comments as the section is only available for paid users.
Also will execute the same campaign instead of sending email.

Help article from MailerLite about verifying and authenticating your domain.

https://www.mailerlite.com/help/how-to-verify-and-authenticate-your-domain

 

Post updated screenshots with the line break removed form the input field value. (there should only be 1 row in the text box)

 

Please check the video for all fields

@Troy Tessalone  i think i have to send the email from the comment section like the other fields ‘name, comment text’ then it may work ?

In MailerLite, you need to authenticate the sender email that you are trying to use in the Zap.

MailerLite help article: https://www.mailerlite.com/help/how-to-verify-and-authenticate-your-domain

 

 

@Troy Tessalone    Sure , I check the article to authenticate email and then proceed for the zap.

Post screenshots from MailerLite showing the sending email is authenticated.

@Troy Tessalone  Many thanks for the solution , the error has gone.

Though i am not able to send the campaign yet as its saying to upgrade the plan :

----------------------------------
Failed to create a campaign in MailerLite
The app returned "Content submission is only available on advanced plan.".
--------------------------------

I checked and the available plans are ‘Starter’ and ‘Professional’   , please confirm will the ‘Starter’ work in our case.

Thanks

The error is from MailerLite: Content submission is only available on advanced plan.

Means the MailerLite plan would need to be upgraded: https://www.mailerlite.com/pricing#compare

You may want to reach out to MailerLite Support for guidance.

Sure will do, Thanks again for help
