ActiveCampaign

ActiveCampaign is a marketing and CRM platform. Connecting it makes ActiveCampaign a destination for the leads Ink Player captures through the email gate. When a viewer submits their email to unlock your media, that Lead is added to ActiveCampaign as a contact on the list you choose.

What this enables

  • Syncs captured leads as contacts in ActiveCampaign.
  • Lets you pick the target list per player, in the email-gate overlay.
  • Verifies your connection before you rely on it, using Test connection.

Prerequisites

  • An active ActiveCampaign account with a valid account URL and API key.
  • At least one list created in ActiveCampaign to receive contacts.

Connect

ActiveCampaign account URL and API key
ActiveCampaign account URL and API key
  1. Go to Settings → Integrations.
  2. Find the ActiveCampaign card under the CRM category.
  3. Click Enable, then Manage.
  4. Enter your Account URL and API key — both are under Settings → Developer → API Access in ActiveCampaign.
  5. Click Test connection to confirm the credentials work.
  6. Click Save.

INFO

The Manage screen holds only the account URL and API key. You choose which list a player adds contacts to in that player's email-gate overlay, not here.

Account URLYese.g. https://your-account.api-us1.com. Settings → Developer → API Access (the URL field).
API keyYesSettings → Developer → API Access (the Key field).

Using it

The list is chosen per player, in the email-gate overlay:

  1. Add an email-gate overlay to a player and set its provider to ActiveCampaign.
  2. Choose a list from the options the overlay loads from your account.
  3. Save the player. When a viewer submits their email, the contact is synced and added to that list.

Troubleshooting

  • If Test connection fails, re-check the account URL and key, then try again.
  • No lists in the overlay dropdown? Confirm the credentials are saved and that your account has at least one list.
  • Prefer to send leads elsewhere, or to more than one destination? Webhooks are an alternative lead destination.
  • See the Leads page to review everything captured by your players.
