  1. Select your Shop Name in the side menu of your Postscript dashboard, then select API.
  2. Select Create Security Key Pair on the right side of the page, then confirm your action by selecting Yes.
  3. Add a label to your API key so you can track where this API key is being used.
  4. Select Show in the Private Key column to reveal your API key. Copy this key or write it down—you'll need to enter it in Okendo later. 

Configure Postscript in Okendo


Once you have your private Postscript API key, you will need to enter it into Okendo's Postscript integration space.

  1. Select Settings in the bottom-left corner of your Okendo dashboard.
  2. From the Settings menu, select Integrations.
  3. Locate Postscript in the Email & SMS section and select the pencil icon.
  4. Copy your Private API Key in the space provided.
  5. Select Save.

Once you have successfully connected Postscript and Okendo, you can create a Postscript automation using an Okendo trigger.

  1. Select Messaging in the side menu of your Postscript dashboard, then select Automations.
  2. In the top-right corner of the page, select Create Automation, then choose Create Legacy Automation. Since you are creating this automation from scratch, select Custom Automation.
  3. Select Okendo Review Request from the Automation Trigger drop-down list.
  4. Select Save & Continue to Messages.
  5. To add a review link, select the More drop-down button above the message field, then select Add Tag.
  6. From the drop-down list, select Review Url
  7. Make sure your typing cursor is where you want the tag placed, then select Insert Tag. The {review_url} tag should appear in your message.
  8. Select Save Automation in the bottom-right corner of the page.
  9. Last, select the Enabled toggle so it changes to blue.
   Note: Both Postscript and Okendo offer a Wait option. You can use either to set up the waiting period between the customer's order being fulfilled or delivered and the review request being sent, but be careful about using both, as the customer could wait twice as long as expected before receiving their SMS.

Create a Postscript Sequence in Okendo


An Okendo sequence sends notification of a fulfilled or delivered order to Postscript, triggering a review request automation message for subscribers who have opted-in.

  1. Select Mail in the side menu of your Okendo dashboard, then select Sequences.
  2. Scroll down to the integration section and select Postscript. Then, select Get Started.
  3. Select the Wait component, then define your wait criteria in the side panel. You can choose to wait a certain amount of days after an item fulfillment or delivery.
  4. Save your changes, then select the Start button in the top-left corner of the page.
