Prerequisites for TikTok and ActiveCampaign Integration
Before you begin, make sure you have everything in place for a smooth integration setup.
TikTok Account: You’ll need an active TikTok Ads Manager account with at least one Lead Generation Form set up. Lead Generation Forms allow you to capture contact information directly within your ads, without sending users to a landing page.
Active Lead Ad Campaign: Ensure you have an active or paused TikTok campaign using Lead Generation Forms. This is the source of your lead data.
ActiveCampaign Account: You’ll need an existing ActiveCampaign account with access to your API credentials. You’ll use these to authenticate LeadSync’s connection to your account.
LeadSync Account: A LeadSync Business plan or higher is required to connect TikTok Lead Generation forms to ActiveCampaign.
Step 1: Connect Your TikTok Account to LeadSync
The first step is to authorize LeadSync to access your TikTok Ads Manager account and retrieve lead data from your lead generation forms.
Log in to your LeadSync account and navigate to Ad Accounts from the left sidebar menu.
Click the TikTok section to expand TikTok options.
Click “Add TikTok Account” to initiate the authorization process.
You’ll be redirected to TikTok’s sign-in page. Sign in with the TikTok account that manages your TikTok Ads Manager account. LeadSync will request permission to access your ad accounts and lead form data. Review the permissions and click “Allow” to proceed.
Once authorized, you’ll be redirected back to LeadSync. Your TikTok Ads Manager account will now appear in the Ad Accounts table, ready for use with your lead forms.
Step 2: Create an ActiveCampaign Connection in LeadSync
Next, you’ll set up your ActiveCampaign connection in LeadSync. This tells LeadSync where to send your TikTok leads.
Navigate to Connections in the LeadSync left sidebar and click the Add Connection button.
Select ActiveCampaign from the integration dropdown menu.
Gather your ActiveCampaign API credentials. Log in to your ActiveCampaign account, click the Settings icon (gear), then navigate to Developer. Copy your API URL and API Key, then paste them into the corresponding fields in LeadSync.
Name your connection descriptively, such as “TikTok – ActiveCampaign” or “TikTok Lead Forms”. This makes it easy to identify among your other connections.
Select the ActiveCampaign List where you want your TikTok leads to be added. This is the contact list that will receive your leads.
Click Update to complete the ActiveCampaign connection setup.
Step 3: Connect Your Google Lead Generation Form to ActiveCampaign
Now you’ll link your specific Google Lead Generation Form to the ActiveCampaign connection you just created and map the fields.
Go to the Lead Forms section in LeadSync’s left sidebar and click Add TikTok Lead Form.
Select your Ad Account from the dropdown. This is the TikTok Ads Manager account you authorized in Step 1.
Select your Lead Generation Form from the second dropdown. This should display all lead generation forms available in your TikTok Ads Manager account.
Select the ActiveCampaign connection you created in Step 2.
Map your fields from your TikTok lead form to ActiveCampaign fields. At minimum, you must map the email field, as it’s required for adding contacts to ActiveCampaign. You can also map additional fields such as first name, last name, phone number, and any custom fields you’ve created in your TikTok lead form.
Click Update Notification to save your lead form integration settings.
Step 4: Test Your TikTok to ActiveCampaign Integration
Before you go live with your lead generation campaign, it’s important to test that leads are flowing correctly from TikTok to ActiveCampaign.
Submit a test lead through your TikTok campaign by clicking on your ad and filling out the lead form with test information. Use a valid email address so you can verify the lead appeared in ActiveCampaign.
Wait 1-2 minutes for the lead to sync through LeadSync to ActiveCampaign.
Log in to your ActiveCampaign account and navigate to your contact list. Search for the email address you used in your test lead. If the contact appears with the correct information, your integration is working properly.
Verify field mapping: Check that all the fields you mapped are populated correctly. If any fields are missing or incorrectly mapped, go back to the lead form settings in LeadSync and adjust your field mappings.
