You can add participants automatically to your Constant Contact subscribers or update their properties using the native Constant Contact integration.

If you want to test the integration before committing to a paid plan, you can do so by registering for a free 14-day trial.

Not entirely sure how to set up the integration? Make sure to learn about it in our dedicated article first.

Connecting the Integration

You can connect the integration either by navigating to the "Integrations" tab in the navbar or by opening the dropdown menu of your project's card and selecting "Connect" - then just click "Connect" on Constant Contact's card.

If you're not currently logged into your Constant Contact account, you'll be prompted to do so. Once you're logged in, you will be asked to allow access for involve.me to connect to Constant Contact.

After allowing access, you'll be able to see the integration's connection name, and it change if needed.

Data Mapping for the Constant Contact Integration

The integration will send email and default personal data fields automatically.

For your list to accept more data, please add "Custom fields" on Constant Contact accordingly beforehand.

Once the integration has been connected to your project, you'll find the button "Manage Custom Fields" on the project's integration settings, which is where you can map the involve.me fields to the integration fields.

Data From Question Elements

Any other collected data fields (eg. from multiple choice elements, free text inputs, sliders, opt-in checkboxes, etc,) can be mapped through "custom field mapping".

Tags

involve.me submissions can not only create custom fields but also assign tags in Constant Contact automatically.

In your project’s integrations setup under the “Manage Tags & Custom Fields” button, you can turn on tags for different kinds of submission data:

  • Outcomes

  • Project name

  • Answers from questions

  • When an opt-in checkbox was ticked

Tags will allow you to trigger different actions in your Constant Contact account or help you organize incoming data. Please be aware that in order to have tags set you do not need to also setup custom fields, they can be used independently.

Good to Know

  • In Constant Contact, subscribers are grouped in lists. Here's how you create a list.

  • Make sure you choose the right field names & types or your integration may not work!

  • If you have configured a Constant Contact integration on a project and you duplicate said project, your integration settings will duplicate as well.

  • Custom fields on existing subscribers will be updated when the same email is sent again.

Opt-in Checkbox and GDPR

In order to be fully GDPR compliant, you will need to tick the option "Only trigger integration when opt-in checkbox element was selected" on your integration's settings and add a dedicated opt-in checkbox that sends data over to the integration, from your involve.me project.

Here's a step-by-step guide on how to set it up.

If GDPR is of no concern to you, then you can skip this step.

Testing Your Integration

Once the integration has been set up and connected to your project, it will be time to test it in order to ensure everything is working as intended, learn how to do it here.
