Overview

Data can be exported from LearningBuilder into Constant Contact using the Polled Data Files feature and a Zapier integration.

Prerequisites:

1. Configure the Polled Data File and Zapier integration

Complete the configuration steps in Zapier integrations using Polled Data Files to:

  • Define the data file that will be exported

  • Configure the Zapier integration that periodically requests that file from LearningBuilder and responds to new data

2. Configure a Constant Contact “Zap” in Zapier

1

Create the Zap

In the Zapier interface, create a new Zap

Sample Zap summary
2

Configure the Trigger

The specific Trigger configuration will depend on how you configured the Zapier integration and Polled Data File.

In this sample, the Zapier integration fires whenever a new user login is reported by LearningBuilder.

3

Configure the Action

The Action is where you configure Zapier to do something with your Constant Contact account.

In this sample, the Zap is configured to create a new Contact and add them to a list.

3. Test it

Once configured, Zapier will periodically request the data file from LearningBuilder. When it sees a record it hasn’t seen before, it will trigger the Zap and pass the mapped data to the Constant Contact integration.

You should see those contacts appear in Constant Contact.
