6. Depending on the Trigger selected in Step 4, choose whether you'll be creating a mailing with user email data (with Address Enrichment enabled) or complete physical address data. You also have the option to add a user to your Do Not Mail list in Poplar.

7. To connect your account, you'll be prompted to enter an Access Token which can be found on the API page of your Poplar account. 

We recommend first entering your Test key, this will allow you to test the trigger connection without actually mailing. Successful trigger requests will be visible from the History tab of the connected campaign.

If you feel ready to go live, head back to Choose Account and select the one connected to your Production key before turning on your Zap!
