5) Troubleshooting

5.1) Error while getting contact unique identifier field list

This Error is received when trying to Configure ActiveCampaign Orders and Abandoned Cart as target.

It is caused due to a lack of Deep Data support from the used ActiveCampaign subscription.
This is only available to Plus, Professional and Enterprise Plans.
ActiveCampaign Lite does not include this.

More information is found on the following page from ActiveCampaign:
https://help.activecampaign.com/hc/en-us/articles/115001171804-Which-plans-include-Deep-Data-Integrations

Therefore Order and Abandoned Cart cannot be used in SyncSpider in the case an ActiveCampaign Lite subscription is used.

We hope that this covers everything. If you have any further questions or need additional clarification please reach out to us via [email protected] or our Chat Widget!
