Optionally, it checks DNS records for Dmarc and open tracking. This automation has 2 components.  1. Monitoring Open tracking & Bcc emails on existing email accounts and adding those fields if they don't already exist. 2. Optional: checking your DNS records for the Dmarc & Open tracking - then adding those fields if they don't already exist. This is NOT the best way to do this but it's better than nothing. This is an EMAIL ACCOUNT AUTOMATION and it can be modified to track & edit anything else that's related to Smartlead email accounts. ![Afonto Profile Picture](https://afonto.com/hs-fs/hubfs/Afonto%20Profile%20Picture.png?width=778&height=777&name=Afonto%20Profile%20Picture.png) Add BCC address & custom tracking Download Blueprint Insert the blueprint in [make](https://www.make.com/en/register?pc=noelm) (new scenario) --- # **Manual Changes** ### Smartlead API key Find it [here](https://app.smartlead.ai/app/settings/profile) and replace {API\_KEY} with your smart lead API key ![Smartlead API-1](https://afonto.com/hs-fs/hubfs/Smartlead%20API-1.png?width=442&height=167&name=Smartlead%20API-1.png) ### Email Account Edits In addition to changing the BCC & Custom tracking URL, you can edit all of the following fields. ` {` `  "max_email_per_day": 100,` `  "custom_tracking_url": "",` `  "bcc": "noel@afonto.com",` `  "signature": "Thanks,
