How to Use the Constant Contact Integration

The Constant Contact integration allows you to create a new Constant Contact subscriber from a Blitzen form. Note that you have to have a Constant Contact Account to use this integration.

How it’s done:

Connect your Constant Contact Account to Blitzen

Navigate to the ‘Integrations’ section in the left-side panel and click on the ‘Constant Contact’ app.

Click ‘Connect’ in the right-side panel.

You will be directed to log in with your existing credentials and asked to give Blitzen permission to access the app. Don’t worry, we won’t mess with the stuff that’s already there!

Make sure that the app is on by moving the app slider to ‘On’

If, for any reason, you would like to disable this app, just move the slider to ‘Off’ or disconnect it all together (How to Disconnect an App).

Create a Workflow with the Constant Contact App

Navigate to the  ‘Workflow’ section in the left-side panel and create a new workflow (How to Create Workflow). You can also edit an existing workflow.

Choose a form or survey to work from   (How to Choose an Input). The only type of form you can use the Constant Contact App with is one that contains the ‘Email’ field. It is also strongly recommended that the form you use contains a 'Name' field. This will make personalizing your emails easier.

Configure Constant Contact

Drag the Constant Contact App over into your workflow. You can configure the app by clicking the ‘+’ icon.

From here you will see a number of options.

The default setting is to sync all submissions from the input form or survey. If that is what you wish to do skip the following section.

Filters

If you do not want to sync all submission simply add filters. Click  ‘Add custom filter’ and use the three fields to create a segment.

You are able to create any number of filters, just make sure they do not contradict each other.

To delete a filter simply click on the ‘x’ icon in the right corner.delete-filter.png

You will then be asked to choose the destination your files will sync to.

Actions

Use the drop-down menus to select the list you wish to add your subscribers to as well as their contact information (email and name fields).

The changes will save automatically and now whenever someone fills out this form, their name and email will be added to that email list in your Constant Contact account like so:

Well done!
