Creating an Integration

From your Slemma account, head over to the Library page and click the plus button at the bottom right. Select Integration from the submenu.

In the following page, you can find ActiveCampaign with one of the following ways:

  1. Scroll down and select ActiveCampaign from the list of Integrations.
  2. Use search to find ActiveCampaign from the list of Integrations.
  3. Choose ActiveCampaign using All dropdown list > E-Commerce.

You’ll see the Integration settings dialog window. You can select the frequency for the automatic updates on the DATA REFRESH tab, or set weeks settings on the ADVANCED tab. Leave this page open for now – we’ll need it to complete the setup.

To set up the connection, you’ll need your ActiveCampaign API URL and API Key. To find your API URL and API Key, read this ActiveCampaign documentation.

Copy your API URL and API Key to the Integration settings window and click OK.

After authorization, you’ll be able to share the integration with either individuals or the entire Team, rename or remove the integration. To view the options available for the integration, right click it in the list.
