In this article, you’ll learn how to connect OmniSend with OptinMonster.

Connect OmniSend

When you create a campaign in OptinMonster that you intend to collect leads with you’ll want to integrate with one or more services to send those leads to.

To send leads to OmniSend, follow these steps:

1. Step 1: Get your Omnisend API Key
   Before you start, you’ll need an Omnisend API Key. To generate and copy the key from your Omnisend account, follow this simple guide. Make sure to give permission for “Contacts.”
2. Step 2: Navigate to Omnisend Integration
   Go to the Integrations view in the OptinMonster campaign builder, search for Omnisend, and select it.
   
3. Step 3: Enter Omnisend Account Name and API Key
   In the appropriate fields, enter an Omnisend Account Name (internal use only) and your Omnisend API Key, then click the “Connect to Omnisend” button.
   
   *The Omnisend Account Name can be anything that helps you identify the specific integration within OptinMonster. It’s possible to add more than one Omnisend integration to your account and this is an easy way to differentiate between them when assigning integrations to individual campaigns.
4. Step 4: Configure Optional Settings
   The following options can also be configured for OmniSend:
   • Tags: Assign any tags you want by typing the tag name and pressing Enter. OmniSend uses Tags instead of Lists.
   • Send welcome email: To have Omnisend send a welcome email when a lead is saved, check the “Send welcome email from Omnisend” box (you’ll need to configure the email in your Omnisend account).
     
5. When you’re finished, Save your campaign.

Add Extra Fields

Field Mapping

Before you begin using Field Mapping with OmniSend, please consider the following:

• Custom fields are referred to as Custom Properties in your Omnisend account.
• You do not need to create custom fields in Omnisend. OptinMonster will create custom fields once you map your fields.
• The following custom fields are reserved in OmniSend and cannot be mapped to:
  • email
  • firstName
  • lastName
  • Lead_Source
  • privacy_consent
  • phone (use the Phone field to send data to this custom field)
  • coupon_code (the Coupon Code won when creating a Gamified spin-to-win campaign)
  • coupon_label (the Coupon Label when creating a Gamified spin-to-win campaign)
• Custom field names should only contain letters, numbers, and underscores.
• You can manage your Custom Properties in OmniSend following this guide.

Form Embed Block

Alternatively, you can add any OmniSend webform to your campaign using our Form Embed block.

Email Automations

To send emails automatically to new leads you’ll configure email automations within your OmniSend account.

The following guides from OmniSend may be helpful to get started:

• Introduction to Automations
• Enable Email Automation in OmniSend
• Create a welcome email automation
• Email and SMS Automations for Enhanced Engagement

For marketing purposes, most users should use the OmniSend automations to send a series of emails to new subscribers.

Testing

We strongly recommend you test the optin form before publishing your campaign to ensure it is working as you expect.

Before you begin, please be aware of the following details when testing OmniSend integrations:

• Previously submitted or already subscribed leads will be overwritten with new data. For this reason, we recommend using a completely unique email address each time you test submit your campaign’s form. You can use a free tool like TempMail.io or learn how to create unlimited unique email addresses from a single Gmail account.
• If the lead is captured in Omnisend but you do not receive any automated emails it indicates the integration from OptinMonster to Omnisend is correct, and the issue is with the automated email configuration. Omnisend controls email automation exclusively. If you require assistance in troubleshooting email automations we recommend reaching out to Omnisend support directly.

Get started testing with the Live Site Inspector tool.

Spin-a-Wheel Support

If you are configuring a Gamified spin-to-win campaign, spin-a-wheel support is automatically enabled when using our native OmniSend integration. The Coupon Label and Coupon Code will be passed as custom fields with each lead.
