Hook up to Campaign Monitor

Hi Matthew, we do indeed sync with Campaign Monitor, you’ll just find it in a slightly different place depending on which version of Leadin you are using.

If you are on version 3.1.9 you’ll find Campaign Monitor under Power-ups, in the Leadin sidebar menu.

If you are on version 4.0.0 you’ll find it under Settings, in the Leadin sidebar menu and then under ‘Email Sync’.

You’ll need your Campaign Monitor API Key, this guide should show you where to get that: https://help.campaignmonitor.com/topic.aspx?t=206

Let me know if this doesn’t work for you or if there’s anything I can clarify.

Cheers!

Thanks for your quick reply.
So I set that up just fine on LeadIn 3.1.9, and tested it, and it worked. Fabulous! Really brilliant! Data going straight into Campaign Monitor like a dream.
Then I thought I’d install LeadIn 4.0. I deleted the old version, as instructed, and installed as an upload. The plugin works, but it won’t accept my API key.
Message under the dialogue box says:
(This API key isn’t working)
Maybe not surprisingly, I now can’t link LeadIn up to my target list.
Also, I lost my existing LeadIn data in the upgrade process. It doesn’t matter, but you do say this won’t happen in the upgrade notes.
Hope you can help here.

My problems seem to have sorted themselves out, except it remains the case that I lost my existing LeadIn data in the upgrade process. It doesn’t matter, but you do say this won’t happen in the upgrade notes.

This is a good plugin. I have a nasty feeling that you’re about to get a lot more commercial…!

ANyway, thanks for it so far.

Hi Matthew, that definitely doesn’t sound right. Let me take a look at this a little further with my team and we’ll see if we can figure out why it wasn’t working for you initially.

We are working hard right now to finish the migration tool from v3.1.9 to v4.0.0. As soon as we have that complete there will be a small update for v4, something like v4.0.1 which will offer the ability to migrate your data that was in v3.1.9 (it still lives inside your MySQL WordPress database even though you deleted the plugin itself), over to version 4.

We will be working hard over the coming months to scale Leadin and hopefully provide even more tools to help our users be successful, however we have no plans to stop offering a free version of Leadin ??

I’m really looking forward to learning what you’re going to do next with it. Thanks for your very responsive support.

Hi Matthew, update for you on this. We were able to take a look at it from our side and confirm that there was an issue with the API Key initially as it had an empty space character at the end which was causing the error. The tool was able to fix it for you and remove the character and we are actually working on updating the settings screen to prevent this error happening again.

Thanks for letting us know!
