Getting FlowBoost usage stats with FBSelf.usage

You can now check daily/monthly API call usage from inside a FlowBoost webhook, then send alerts straight from Marketo.

FUD Relief: Nope, a plain http: ˂img src˃ in an email won’t fail to load

A MOPS myth that sounds plausible... but falls apart after tech review and a little testing.

One of the most unreal FUD passages I’ve seen

Reading the docs of an unnamed CDP. It’s a very impressive app whose tag manager piece easily outclasses GTM (I consider GTM the spawn of a minor demon). Then

The Marketo REST Asset API returns invalid ISO 8601 DateTimes
