= Connect Wix to ActiveCampaign =

== Introduction ==
The integration of '''Wix''' with '''ActiveCampaign''' allows businesses to seamlessly sync data between the two platforms. This integration is essential for businesses looking to automate their customer relationship management by capturing information such as store orders, form submissions, and bookings directly from their '''Wix''' site. By effectively using this integration, businesses can not only trigger event-tracking updates from automations but also create targeted segments, drive sales, and generate leads, making it a critical component of any marketing strategy.

== How to Access This Feature ==
To access the '''Connect Wix to ActiveCampaign''' feature, you must have an active account on both platforms. You will need to retrieve your ActiveCampaign API URL and Key before you can begin the integration process. Make sure you are logged in to both your ActiveCampaign and Wix accounts.

== Step-by-Step Instructions ==
Follow these steps to set up the integration between '''Wix''' and '''ActiveCampaign''':

=== Step 1: Retrieve API Credentials ===
1. Log into your ActiveCampaign account.
2. Retrieve your API URL and Key by following the instructions in the [https://help.activecampaign.com/hc/en-us/articles/207317590-Getting-started-with-the-API Getting started with the API] article.

=== Step 2: Log Into Wix ===
1. Open a new tab or window and log into your '''Wix''' account.
2. Create a new automation within your Wix account, selecting an app trigger that fits your business needs.

=== Step 3: Setup Trigger ===
1. Set up the trigger based on the app you selected within Wix.

=== Step 4: Map Data Fields ===
1. Map the data from your chosen trigger to corresponding fields in '''ActiveCampaign'''. You can match Wix fields with ActiveCampaign’s standard or '''custom fields''' only if the fields exist in ActiveCampaign. Refer to the [https://support.wix.com/en/article/enterprise-solution-adding-and-setting-up-activecampaign-integration#step-3-map-data-from-the-trigger-to-activecampaign mapping guide] for assistance.

=== Step 5: Activate Your Automation ===
1. Once you have completed mapping the fields, activate your automation within '''Wix''' to start the integration process.

== Configuration Options and Settings ==
The integration operates with a few configuration options and settings that are essential for successful operation:
* You can sync '''Contacts''', '''Deals''', and '''Accounts''' from Wix to ActiveCampaign.
* It is crucial to create '''custom fields''' in '''ActiveCampaign''' prior to configuring the integration as you cannot create new custom fields from inside '''Wix Automations'''.
* New contacts are tagged with a "Wix" contact tag for easy segmentation post-import.
* If a new deal is created within ActiveCampaign, you will be required to select an existing ActiveCampaign stage or pipeline within Wix.

== Best Practices and Tips ==
To ensure that your integration works smoothly and to get the most out of it, consider the following best practices:
* Before implementing the integration, familiarize yourself with the [https://help.activecampaign.com/hc/en-us/articles/221542267-An-overview-of-Site-Tracking Site Tracking] process in ActiveCampaign.
* It may be beneficial to set up '''active campaign site tracking''' on your '''Wix''' website to better understand user behavior.
