Custom Data on Transactional Webhooks — Your Own References Back on Every Event
Attach your own key–values to a transactional email and get them back on every webhook event — Sent, Delivery, Open, Bounce, Spam and Reject — with no lookup on your side. Works on both the Email API (a custom object inside metadata) and the SMTP relay (X-MC-Custom- headers). Up to 10 keys per message; anything that breaks a rule is dropped and named in custom_dropped, and the email is always sent. Custom data is stripped before delivery, so recipients never see it, and senders not using it see no change to their payloads.
