Troubleshooting Tips

If your integration isn’t working properly, check the following:

1. API Key Issues

  • Ensure your API key is copied correctly (no extra spaces)
  • Confirm it’s active in your iContact account

2. List Not Selected

  • Make sure you’ve selected the correct email list in iContact
  • If no list is selected, leads won’t be added

3. Form Field Mismatch

  • Check that required fields (like email) are mapped correctly
  • Missing required fields can cause silent failures

4. Test Submission Not Working

  • Always submit a test lead after setup
  • Verify if the contact appears inside iContact

5. Delays in Sync

  • Sometimes there’s a short delay before contacts appear
  • Refresh your iContact dashboard before assuming failure

If issues persist, reconnect the integration or regenerate the API key.
