The API integration with Keap is the easiest and most flexible way to integrate Deadline Funnel with your Keap account.

Note: Keap was previously Infusionsoft

In Deadline Funnel, navigate to the 'Emails' tab in the left-hand menu of your campaign. Here, if you have not connected your Keap account to Deadline Funnel yet, you'll see a button to integrate. Click that button.
​

A second window will be open to connect your Keap account. Select your account from the dropdown and then click 'Allow':

On the next screen, you'll need to select the Category 'Custom Fields':

Next, you can select your Custom Field:

We recommend that you give it a descriptive name to indicate it relates to this campaign. The custom field is just a field in Keap that stores a copy of each contact's unique deadline.

You can create that field from Deadline Funnel while you're setting up the integration. Simply type in the box and hit Enter to create it.

(If you don't see Custom Fields in the form group drop-down it's likely because you haven't created any custom fields in Keap yet. In this case, please create your custom field in your Keap account and then integrate it with Deadline Funnel.)

Copy your Deadline Funnel webhook:

Go into your campaign sequence in Keap and add "Send HTTP Post" at the point in the sequence where you want the deadline to begin.

Double-click on 'Send HTTP Post' and paste your Deadline Funnel webhook into the 'Post URL' box:

If any information appears in the Name/Value Pairs section, remove that. Those sections should be blank:

Then toggle 'Draft' to 'Ready':

Make sure to publish your campaign!

Now the deadline will begin for each contact as soon as they reach the HTTP Post in your automation

If you haven't run a test yet, please log in to Keap and add a subscriber to your automation/sequence/list so that the Deadline Funnel webhook gets triggered.

Important Note: You must make sure your campaign in Keap has been published and is not in Test Mode in order for the test to work.

You can then check under Analytics >> People Tracked in Deadline Funnel to confirm the email address was received by Deadline Funnel.

For the API integration to work you MUST use the Deadline Funnel email links in any of your emails that link to a sales page with a countdown timer, or that link to a page in your funnel that links to another page with your countdown timer.

In other words, the API integration requires that your subscribers click one of the Deadline Funnel email links before they reach a page with a countdown. This is necessary in order to make sure each subscriber is assigned the correct deadline.
