Create an email Gallery to display brand-owned and user-generated content on emails.
Create an email Gallery
You can create both Evergreen and Campaign email Galleries. Evergreen email Galleries display top-performing content based on filters that you set. Campaign email Galleries display static content that you choose. You can choose from images, videos, or both as your source to create an email Gallery.
Follow these steps to create an email Gallery in Vibe.
- In Vibe, select Commerce > Email.
- Select Get Started.
Follow the instructions in the "Evergreen" or "Campaign" sections below depending on which type of email Gallery you want to create.
Evergreen

Media Source
Select the drop-down menu under Media Source and select the Gallery you want to source content from for this email Gallery. The content from the Gallery you select will appear on this email Gallery.
Gallery URL
You can only choose one URL destination for your email Gallery. When a user selects any media item in your email Gallery, they'll be taken to this URL. Enter your URL in the Gallery URL text field.
Layout
Under Layout, enter how many rows and columns you want in your desktop and mobile email Gallery experiences. Use the Padding slider to adjust how much white space appears between each image in your email Gallery.
