How can I map social fields?

Database users can map social fields in Acoustic Campaign on the Edit Contact Source Field page.

About this task

Note: If you add a field to your form, but do not map it to a social field, any contact data returned by the provider does not populate in the form.

Procedure

  1. In Data, go to View Data or Manage.
  2. Click the Fields tab and select the Edit option for the database field you want to map as a social field.
  3. Click the drop-down box to select the social field you want to map your database field to.
  4. Save your selection.

What to do next

After you map your fields from your database to the Social provider fields, you are ready to add the widget to your landing page site.

  • The data that is returned from the provider is not guaranteed. Data is returned only if the person who opted-in filled in that part of his or her social profile.
  • You do not have to include database fields on your form. The social network passes them over automatically.
Tip: Put a field in your database to map to the social network. The information gathered from the social sign-In source is included in the opt-in information that is available via Contact Insight.
