Changes to data provided to Mandrill for Order Tracking
Biagio Santoro
Currently the data provided to Mandrill for order tracking is the following:
- Customer Name
- Carrier Name (E.g. Royal Mail)
- Courier Service (E.g. 2nd Class)
- Tracking URL
- Courier Status (Created)
- Tracking Code
- Order Reference
A nice upgrade to tracking emails would be the ability of adding structured data, for example Gmail can show "Go-to Actions" to customers (for example track parcel).
There are required fields for these actions to show up, in regards to data that needs to be available in the email:
- Item/Items being delivered
- Delivery Address (Street, Locality/City, Region/County, Postcode)
- Carrier (Already Available)
- Order Number (Already Available)
- Merchant (Can be made by tagging your company name)

Obviously not urgent by any means, but thought I'd suggest it to start a discussion!
