Purpose

  • Access rights to view Settings and Extensions within the CRM.
  • Edit access to the shared master Google Sheet used for publisher integrations.

Procedure

Step 5. Copy the required details

Step 7. Maintain separate sheets per publisher, where applicable

Maintain separate sheets (tabs) for each publisher wherever applicable, so that each publisher's integration details are easy to locate and update independently.

Optional: Additional Configuration Tabs (All Publishers)

The Publisher Integration screen also includes additional tabs alongside Webhook Integration and Field Mapping: Lead Flow, Campaign Duration, and Lead Parameters. These are optional and available for every publisher — use them if a campaign needs configuration beyond the default webhook setup and field mapping.
