Before proceeding

One last thing before proceeding to the next step is to send a test lead from Optin Monster. This will allow us to recognize the attributes you'd like to pass along and offer them as presets in the next steps of the setup.

  1. Please make sure the LeadsBridge screen is saying "Waiting for New Lead...", it means that we're ready to receive your test data
  2. Go to Optin Monster

    • Type the address(es) where you'd like to receive the receipt
    • You may also modify the Subject line of the email
  6. Click on the Next button

Step 4: Fields Mapping

Here you'll be able to map your source information with your destination fields.

You'll see a field name with the destination integration's logo at the top, this indicates the name of the field on Instagram Custom Audiences.

Underneath there's a box where you may add the information you'd like to send.

  • Check each of the Instagram Custom Audiences fields available
  • Match the information you wish to pass along from Optin Monster
  • You may type the information manually and pass them as a static value
  • Use the functions to customize information like reformatting dates and times or modifying text, phone numbers and so on
  • You may also leave blank the box of a field's information you don't want to send through
