How to Trigger a Countdown using Integrately

Integrately gives you the ability to connect different apps that do not have an integration.

For this example, we will setup a trigger between Deadline Funnel and Kajabi, so that a countdown timer is started when someone joins a Kajabi list. You can use any email service provider you choose, as long as they integrate with Integrately.

Note: Make sure that you have already integrated your Integrately account with Deadline Funnel and your email service provider (ESP), and that you are logged into your Integrately account before you begin.



1. How to Get the URL for your webhook POST

Go to Integrations, select the campaign you want to integrate with and select 'New Integration':

Select 'Create Deadline Funnel Tracking' and hit 'Next':
โ€‹

Under email providers click 'More Email Providers' and select Integrately, then hit 'Next':

Copy the webhook URL on the next page:


2. Create the Deadline Funnel trigger with your ESP:

In your Integrately dashboard, search for your Email Service Provider (We used Kajabi) as the Trigger App:

Now search for Deadline Funnel as the 2nd app your want to connect to:

In the next window, you need to select the trigger condition in your Email Service Provider and the action that will be performed in Deadline Funnel. In the example we selected "Form Submission is added in Kajabi" but you can choose any of the trigger methods available for your provider. Now select "Add Subscriber to funnel in Deadline Funnel" and click Go:

If you haven't connected your email provider account to Integrately yet, you'll need to follow the instructions to connect your account.

Next, paste the webhook URL that you copied from the integration in Deadline Funnel into the URL field of your automation in Integrately.

Add any test email address to the Email field and then click "Test & Activate":

Once you receive confirmation that the automation is complete, head back to Deadline Funnel and check the Analytics section to confirm that a deadline was triggered for the test email address:

We recommend that you also test the integration by triggering a test deadline via your email provider using the method you specified in the automation. In our example, we'll submit the selected form in Kajabi and then check Analytics in Deadline Funnel.

Please note that there can be a slight delay between Integrately and Deadline Funnel, so if it doesn't show up right away, simply check back in five to ten minutes.


Important Note about Email Links

For the 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.
