Campaign Monitor modules allow you to monitor, publish or update posts, photos and videos in your Campaign Monitor account.
Prerequisites
- A Campaign Monitor account
In order to use Campaign Monitor with Ibexa Connect, it is necessary to have a Campaign Monitor account. If you do not have one, you can create a Campaign Monitor account at www.campaignmonitor.com/signup/?sv=home-a
Note
Module dialog fields that are displayed in bold (in the Ibexa Connect scenario, not in this documentation article) are mandatory!
Connecting Campaign Monitor to Ibexa Connect¶
To connect your Campaign Monitor account to Ibexa Connect follow the general instructions for Connecting to services.
After you click the Continue button, Ibexa Connect will redirect you to the Campaign Monitor website where you have to log in and grant Ibexa Connect access to your account.
Confirm the dialog by clicking the Allow access button.
