Marketo
Update/Add Marketo people with their unique share link and referrer information.
Note: The Marketo integration is only available to users on the GrowSurf Business plan or higher.
Step 1: In Campaign Editor > 4. Options > Integrations, open the Marketo integration card and enter your client ID and client secret. Next, enter the REST API Endpoint URL and Identity URL.
IMPORTANT: Because the GrowSurf data sync to Marketo only occurs after you have connected with the integration, it is imperative to connect with the integration BEFORE importing participants.

Step 2: Once connected, GrowSurf will add/update your Marketo people every time a new participant is added or referred to your referral campaign.
Step 3: You should now see a screen that looks like the one below:

*GrowSurf Referral Status can be the following:
CREDIT_PENDING (This participant must still trigger a referral for their referrer to receive referral credit), CREDIT_AWARDED (This participant triggered a referral and their referrer received referral credit), CREDIT_EXPIRED (This participant did not trigger the referral credit within the referral credit expiration window so their referrer did not receive referral credit).You can use these merge tags in your Marketo email templates. Whether you launch a new marketing campaign or have an automated drip campaign going on, make sure to always include
{{lead.GrowSurf Share URL}}in your emails to provoke your people to make referrals!- If the new participant isn't being added to Marketo, or if they are being added but their unique referral link isn't being synced to Marketo:
- Activity logs will denote if a participant was added to Marketo or if they failed to be added. (In the case of failure, GrowSurf will re-attempt to add them for 7 days).
- It is possible there could be an issue with your Marketo permissions when the new Marketo Custom Service was created with the API Role. Please disconnect the Marketo integration within GrowSurf, and follow the steps outlined in the Important section at the beginning of this page to reconnect.
