What is the lookup Keyword?

Lookup is a keyword that you can use to link subscriber destinations regardless of subscriber type. It will "lookup" the Avenue users Slack ID, phone number, or Telegram based on the users email returned in the monitor query.

Here is the syntax, make sure to replace email_column with your data's column name:

{{lookup email_column}}

Telegram ID

T053QG9DF77
