If you want to add an animated countdown timer into your Ontraport email you can follow the instructions here: How to Add an Animated Email Countdown to Ontraport

Click on Integrations in the top blue bar:
​

Select the integration for your campaign:
​

Now click on your Ontraport integration:

Note the name of the custom field that you selected for this campaign:

Important Note: There can be a delay between when the webhook triggers the deadline for a contact and when the contact's custom field gets populated with their deadline. Because of this, we recommend that you don't use the custom field in your emails until at least one day after the deadline is initially triggered.

1. In the email editor, place the cursor where you want to add the dynamic date and time and click 'Insert Merge Field':

2. Scroll down and select your Deadline Funnel custom field that you selected when you set up your API integration (we named ours 'Super Duper Course Deadline'):

3. This will insert your custom field placeholder into your email:

4. When you send yourself the email, you will see that the placeholder has been replaced with the deadline text format you chose in your setup.

NOTE : You must send the actual email, the placeholder will not be replaced in a test message. You can send the email to yourself to test the delivery.
