Follow the step-by-step instructions to import your contacts to FunnelKit Automations from the ActiveCampaign plugin.
Step 1: Go to the Contacts tab in FunnelKit Automations and click on Import
Navigate to FunnelKit Automations ⇒ Contacts. Then, click on the 'Import' button and select 'Create New'.
Step 2: Select ActiveCampaign as the source
Select the source as ActiveCampaign.
Step 3: Connect FunnelKit Automations to ActiveCampaign and choose a list for import
Next, add the API URL and API Key, and then click Connect.
Note: Get your API key at Get your API key at ActiveCampaign Account > API keys. For more details, please refer to this documentation.
Step 4: Map the contacts field
Next, you need to map the contacts. Mapping allows you to accurately store your fields in FunnelKit Automations by linking ActiveCampaign data to the appropriate fields where you want it saved.
Step 5: Autocreate ActiveCampaign tags and lists
Next, you can automatically create the existing ActiveCampaign tags and lists in FunnelKit Automations.
To auto-generate tags, enable the 'Auto-Create All Tags' option. If you prefer to generate only specific tags, disable the ones you don’t want to create.
You can follow the same process to auto-generate lists as well.
Step 6: Set the actions
Under Actions, you can add tags and lists.
Step 7: Configure the contact profile
After that, set the following:
- Do Not Overwrite Empty Fields: Prevents blank fields in your import file from replacing existing contact information.
- Allow Field Information to be Overwritten: Let's the import update and overwrite existing contact fields with new values.
- Trigger Automations for Tag & List Changes: Enables automation workflows to run when a contact’s tag or list is updated during import.
Finally, hit Import.
Step 8: Wait for your import to complete
Please wait for a few seconds, depending on the number of contacts. You will find a progress bar of how many contacts were skipped, failed, or successfully imported.
Go to contacts to see your imported contacts.
This is how you can import contacts to FunnelKit Automations from ActiveCampaign.
