ActiveCampaign + Make – SEEN Documentation

MAKE plan with enough monthly Ops to support the volume of contacts.

This guide will help you set up a trigger-based integration between ActiveCampaign and SEEN Make’s native ActiveCampaign and SEEN integrations (App), and receive landing page URL and an email thumbnail URL back to ActiveCampaign to populate their respective Custom Fields.

This example uses the “Watch Contacts” module in Make, which triggers when a new contact is created and the “Update a Contact” module to send data back from SEEN to Active Campaign.

This example uses the profiles first name and last name as the personalisations.

Send data to SEEN

Create a new Make scenario, and add the “ActiveCampaign” ⇒ “Watch Contacts” module.

Connect your ActiveCampaign account to Make following the steps provided by Make.

Choose if you wish to trigger the event when a contact is created or updated. In this example we choose “Contact Created”.

The limit can also be left to the default of 10

Keep in mind that the rate limit for SEEN’s API is 1000 calls per hour

You can leave the other fields empty, but you can also define the “List ID”, “Status” or any other details to match your use case.

Choose “Where to start”.

In this example we choose “From now on”

Add a “SEEN - Create a new video” module, and fill it out with the following:

Create a Connection:

Add the Token you have received from SEEN.

Add the Campaign Slug you have received from SEEN.

Standard fields:

Add the standard fields you will be sending in. Note that both First Name and Customer ID are mandatory fields

Extra Arguments:

If you use additional data fields in you video, you can map them by using Key-Value pairs under Extra Arguments.

You can now create some test contacts and run the scenario once.

If everything worked as intended, you can now activate the scenario to run in your preferred time intervals

We recommend short intervals to get the video to new contacts as soon as possible.

Receive data back from SEEN

Create Custom Fields for the SEEN landing page URL and the SEEN email thumbnail URL.

Choose “SEEN - Watch for created video” as the first module

Click on “Create a Webhook” and name your webhook.

Share your webhook URL with SEEN

Add a new “ActiveCampaign” module, and choose the “Update a Contact Option”.

You will be able to reuse the ActiveCampaign connection you created in the first step, so no need to re-authenticate.

On the “Contact” field, toggle on “Map”, and choose “Customer ID” from the “Watch for created video” Module

You will see your Custom Fields in the bottom

Map “Landing Page URL” to “SEEN Landing Page URL”

Map “Email Thumbnail URL” to “SEEN Email Thumbnail URL”

You can now activate both Scenarios and test the connection. You should now see the links on your contact.
