Download tracking

Know whether they opened it.

You send the files and then you wait. Campsend records when the delivery was first opened and when a file was first downloaded, so the follow-up email stops being a guess.

Send files 15 free deliveries each month

What gets recorded

Three moments and the time of each.

Sent

When the delivery email left, or that it failed. You find out about a bounce here rather than a week later.

Opened

When the recipient first opened the delivery page. They arrived. Campsend has no record of whether they read anything.

Downloaded

When a file was first downloaded. That's the one most people are waiting for.

On every plan

That includes the free plan. Tracking isn't something we sell back to you.

Why it means anything

One recipient makes it an answer.

A tracked link that's been forwarded around tells you somebody opened something. That's not the question you had.

One delivery, one person

Each delivery is addressed to one email address, so "opened" means that person opened it. A client team of five is five deliveries, which is more work and the reason the answer is worth having.

Where you see it

On the delivery's own page as three steps with times, and across the whole account under Activity, which keeps a year of history.

Ask instead of looking

With an API token, Claude or any client that speaks the Model Context Protocol can answer "was last week's delivery opened?" without you opening a browser. Campsend for developers.

What it doesn't do

Campsend records it and waits for you to look.

These are worth knowing before you rely on it.

No notification

Campsend doesn't email or push you when a delivery is opened. The record is there when you go and look, and that's all it does today.

First time only

Only the first open and the first download are recorded. Come back a second time and nothing new appears.

Not a read receipt

Opening the page isn't reading the work, and downloading isn't approving it. What you get is whether the handover happened, which is the part that used to need an email.

Who asks for this

People who deliver work.

What it costs

Nothing on any plan.

Tracking is on the free plan and every paid one. Plans differ on people, storage and how large one delivery can be. Tracking is one part of client file delivery.
