The iContact integration allows you to easily import your iContact lists into NeverBounce and send the validation results back to iContact.
Getting Started
To get started with this integration, login to your NeverBounce dashboard and click “Add List” on the right of your dashboard. This will open a modal window displaying a list of integrations on the left.
If you have not used this integration before:
Under “Add Integration” you will see a list of possible integrations. Scroll or use the search bar at the bottom to find the integration you are looking for. Click on the iContact integration and you will see fields to authorize the application and input your credentials on the right.
If you have already connected this integration:
Under “Current” you will see a list of the integrations you have connected. Click on the iContact integration to see a list of your lists.
Importing A List
Once logged in with your iContact credentials, after a few seconds you should see your iContact lists on the right. Select one and click “Import List” to begin importing your list. Once imported, the list can be analyzed and validated just like an uploaded list.
Sending the Results Back to iContact
Once you’ve completed validation, sending the valid results back to iContact is as easy as pressing ‘Export to iContact’. Clicking on ‘Export to iContact’ will start the export process and the button will change to ‘Exported’. We’ll attempt to create a custom field named ‘neverBounceValidationResult’ to store the NeverBounce validation result (valid, invalid, disposable, catchall, and unknown).
Once the results are exported to iContact, you can always Re-export your list. This can be done by clicking on ‘Exported’ button and selecting ‘Re-export’ option.
Disconnecting iContact
To disconnect iContact once you have it connected, click “Add List” from your dashboard. On the left you should see “iContact” listed under your current integrations. Hover over “iContact” until you see a red broken link icon to the right. Click on that icon and you will see disconnection instructions on the right.
You can reconnect your iContact account anytime by following the instructions above.
FAQ
My import has been processing for a while, how long does it take? Why isn’t there a progress bar?
Importing can take several minutes for a few thousand contacts and upwards of an hour for larger numbers of contacts. Unfortunately we are unable to provide a progress indicator as we are unable to retrieve the total number of contacts in a list until importing is completed.
I am unable to connect to my iContact account. Why is that?
If you are having trouble in connecting with iContact, please make sure you have completed the following steps correctly:
- Authorize Neverbounce Application using ‘Authorize Application’ button.
- Make sure you enter the same username/password you entered while Authorizing the NeverBounce Application.
If you are still having trouble, please contact our support.
I am unable to see the NeverBounce validation results in my iContact account. What should I do?
We store validation results in a custom field named ‘neverBounceValidationResult’. Within your iContact account, you can always create segments based on the custom field. (Please view iContact’s Help Doc for additional information regarding how to create a segment.)
