What content can be uploaded in the Shaman email editor?

The Shaman email editor is an easy to use drag and drop HTML builder. This means that you can not import or upload previous email designs (in any formats - HTML, PDF nor JPEG).

Using blocks and the content items available, you can populate email templates and fragments with engaging images, text, headers and buttons.


Images for email

You can upload images in the following formats to the Shaman email editor:

We advise size for images with 100% width of 1200px (most email have content width 600px, for retina screens this means 1200px). We will automatically resize images larger than 1600px width to 1600px.

Veeva advises keeping this content as small as possible, as it needs to be synced and downloaded by sales reps.

FYI: Veeva Engage does not support video.

Good to know!

When uploading images to the Shaman email editor, the maximum size limit is 3MB. Any images bigger than this will receive an error message and will not upload successfully.


GIFs for email

You can also upload GIFs to the email editor, in the same way that you upload images.

The same recommendations and size limits apply to both GIFs and images, so any GIF over 3MB will not be uploaded successfully.

Good to know!

It is not possible to embed a video directly into your email, but you can make the most of “call to actions” such as buttons and images to link to a video. You can add your video as a Veeva hosted document, click here to find out more.
