You will need to generate an API Key and Secret to use with Justuno. Log in to your Sailthru account and go to API postbacks. Click the icon for "API Key and Secret." Copy the information for later use:

API Key and Secret

B: If you do have an email field already in the design canvas highlight the email field and then hit change form (If you have an integration set up in Step 3 of your promotion already, please disconnect it for the step 1 integration to work)

This will bring up a modal with all advanced integrations, click Sailthru and enter in the API Key and Secret that you copied.

How to Add Fields

Next, you will see a default form has been created based on the contact fields available for Sailthru. You can also add your own fields by selecting the “Add New Fields” option below the form. This will create the field in Sailthru and make it available for you to use in the form.

How to Hide Fields

If you are sending information that does not require a user to fill anything out, make sure the hidden setting is checked.

Auto-Populate Fields (Collect IP Address, Coupon Code, Current Website URL)

We have added a few hidden fields that are commonly used:

  • Current URL (the URL a user is on when they submit the form)
  • IP address (the visitor’s IP address)
  • Coupon code (the coupon code they receive in the post engagement)
  • Referring URL (the URL the user clicked on to get to the new page in your website.)
  • Previous Domain Referring URL (the URL of the last page)
  • First URL visitor landed on (the URL the user first landed on)

If you are pushing the coupon code to Sailthru please make sure you have a coupon code presenter layer in the post engagement. Here is an article to help you with that setting

Hit create form and edit the design to your liking! Please note: You do not have to integrate Sailthru again in step three (Integrations) unless you would like to send emails to two separate lists in Sailthru!

Important Step: If you have an integration set up in Step 3 of your promotion already, please disconnect it for the step 1 integration to work.
