Crowdsource Email Specs

Crowdsource events have different email specs. 


Email Allowlisting

To allow all employees to receive survey invitation and reminder emails, please ensure the following:

  • Allowlist emails that are sent from: 

    • IP Address: 168.245.10.169

    • Domain: @perceptyx.com

  • The IP Address will point to:

    • Hostname: o3.app-email.waggl.com

    • ISP/Organization: SendGrid


Email Addresses:

Following is the specific list of email addresses used by Crowdsource:


Invites employees to pulses or remind them to participate in the pulse.


Informs admins, managers and participants when the Dialogue is completed (only applicable when automated emails are turned on).


Notifies team members that they are added as admins to the account; reminds the primary admin on the account to send a final nudge for the live Crowdsource.


Generates the password reset email for employees (not applicable if integrated with SSO).


Informs admins when data exports are ready for download. 


Informs moderators when an open-ended response is flagged by a participant.



Email Security Software Impact

Automated email security tools may cause artificially high view rates, similar to how URL scanners can generate 100% survey response rates. To prevent misinterpretations, customers should assess their IT configurations for the following:


  • Email Scanning Technologies: Tools like Microsoft Defender for Office 365 (Safe Links, Safe Attachments) scan and load email content, potentially triggering false views.


  • Image Preloading: Email clients such as Outlook Desktop, Web, or Mobile may preload images, affecting response metrics.


  • Third-Party Gateways: Security services like Proofpoint, Mimecast, or similar providers may prefetch email content before delivery, impacting tracking accuracy.



Application Specs

  • All employees will be able to access the domains listed below.
