[Help center](https://scratcher.io/help) 2. [Integrations](https://scratcher.io/help/integrations) 3. Connect ActiveTrail with Zapier # Connect ActiveTrail with Zapier Add new sign-ups from Scratcher as contacts to an ActiveTrail group with a Zap, step by step. You connect Scratcher to ActiveTrail through Zapier. A Zap takes every new lead from your Scratcher campaign and creates or updates a contact in ActiveTrail, in the group you choose. ## What you need - A Zapier account. The free plan works for a simple Zap; a consent filter step needs a paid Zapier plan. - An ActiveTrail account, and a user who can create API access tokens (usually the account owner or an admin). - A Scratcher plan with integrations, and a campaign with at least one lead to test with. ## Step 1: Create an access token in ActiveTrail 1. In ActiveTrail, go to the settings and open the API apps (API access) page. 2. Create a new app or token and name it, for example "Zapier". 3. Don't limit the token to certain IP addresses: Zapier sends from changing addresses. 4. Set an expiry date far enough ahead, or none, so the Zap doesn't stop. 5. Copy the token. ## Step 2: Connect Scratcher to Zapier If you haven't done it yet, follow [Connect 8,000+ apps with Zapier](https://scratcher.io/help/integrations/zapier): in Scratcher go to **Settings** > **Integrations** > **Zapier** and click **Set up on Zapier**. ## Step 3: Set up the trigger 1. In Zapier, click **Create** and choose **Zaps**. 2. As the trigger, choose **Scratcher** and the trigger for new leads. 3. Connect your Scratcher account, choose the campaign and click **Test trigger**. ## Step 4: Add the ActiveTrail action 1. Add the action step and choose **ActiveTrail**. 2. As the action event, choose the one that creates or updates a contact (or adds a contact to a group). 3. Connect your account: paste the access token from step 1. 4. Choose the group the contacts should go into. ## Step 5: Map the fields - **Email**: the lead's email. - **First name** and **Last name**: your form fields. - **SMS** or phone: the phone number, with country code. - Extra fields: map them to ActiveTrail's custom fields, which must exist in ActiveTrail first. ## Step 6: Test and publish 1. Click **Test step**, and check the contact in ActiveTrail. Delete it afterwards. 2. Click **Publish** to turn the Zap on. ## Only send people who said yes Add a **Filter by Zapier** step after the trigger, choose your marketing permission from Scratcher and set it to "(Boolean) Is true". See [Consent and permissions](https://scratcher.io/help/forms/consent-and-permissions). ## Troubleshooting - Look at the **Zap history** in Zapier for each run and ActiveTrail's error message. - "Unauthorized": the token expired, was deleted, or is limited to certain IP addresses. Create a new token and reconnect the account in Zapier. - The contact isn't added to the group: the contact unsubscribed earlier in ActiveTrail.
