How to Integrate Deadline Funnel with Keap

In this example, we have an automation in Keap, which is a welcome series set to send emails with a special offer when someone subscribes. This is how we have set it up:

Open the Emails tab in your campaign editor, and copy the webhook:
​

Inside your Keap automation, click on View and Edit:
​

Select Send an HTTP Request in the menu to the left, and then select Send email:

Insert your webhook into the Target URL field. Make sure that the Method is set to Post:
​

When you are done, click Save. Make sure to connect the actions in your sequence:
​

Once you have added your webhook and connected the actions, you can Publish the changes in Keap:
​

That's it! You have now integrated your Keap automation with your Deadline Funnel campaign.
​
When a subscriber goes through this automation, they'll be automatically added to the Deadline Funnel campaign when they reach the webhook.

Deadline Funnel email links are very important to use in your emails wherever you are linking to your special offer (i.e. sales page or checkout page) that subscribers will only be able to access before the deadline.

Deadline Funnel email links pass the subscriber's email address through the link so Deadline Funnel can look up the subscriber's deadline based on their email address and redirect them to your special offer page (or to the expired page if their deadline is expired).

When you add a new page to your Deadline Funnel campaign, an email link is automatically generated for that specific page.
​
You can find your email links by going to the Emails tab on the left side of your campaign editor:

Before going live with your campaign, it's best to first test your campaign, to make sure that everything is working correctly.

Go to the Test Your Campaign tab on the left side of your campaign editor. Then, click on Clear My Tracking:

In the second step, you should add the email address of your test user. This is the email address that you will use when you opt in to your funnel:

You will now see that Deadline Funnel is waiting for your test user to be added to your funnel:

You should now add your test user to your funnel, so that it goes through the webhook/tag.

It's recommended that you enter the funnel like a customer would. For example, if you have connected an opt-in form to your webhook, then you should opt in via that opt-in form.

In some platforms, you can also add your test user manually to the automation where you have the webhook/tag.

Once your test user has gone through the webhook, you should see that the event was received in step 3:

You need to refresh the page in your browser for the new event to show up. It might also take a few minutes before the event shows up.

Lastly, you should click on the Deadline Funnel email link in step 4. When you visit the page, you should be able to see the timer on the page:

In Deadline Funnel, you can set up a redirect page that subscribers get redirected to once their deadline expires.

To make sure that the redirect is correct, you can go to the Analytics page and click on the three dots next to your test user. Edit the deadline to a date in the past, so that your deadline has expired:
​

Go back to the testing page, and click on your email link. If you have set up a redirect page, you should now be redirected away from the page when you try to visit the page.

If your test user has been received, and you can see the timer on your page, that means you're all set, and the campaign is ready to go live!
