What is a Hosted Saved Row?
Beefree SDK has introduced an updated version of the popular Saved Rows feature called Hosted Saved Rows. With this feature, Beefree SDK is responsible for storing Saved Rows in its own S3 Bucket and handling all the necessary steps for allowing your users to save and reuse rows.
What are the biggest benefits of this feature for your end users?
End users can now easily save and reuse rows across multiple designs, including emails, pages, and popups. They can quickly find and manage Hosted Saved Rows by category.
What is the difference between Hosted Saved Rows and Self-Hosted Saved Rows?
The benefit for your users remains the same—they can save and reuse rows instead of rebuilding them every time. The only difference is that with Hosted Saved Rows, you don't have to develop all the necessary steps within your application on your own. All you need to do is activate the feature through a toggle in the Developer Console.
Where are the Hosted Saved Rows stored?
We will store your end users' Hosted Saved Rows in a Beefree S3 Bucket. Each row will be exclusively used for the given UID belonging to the subscription.
