Map Interact Triggers to Thinkific Actions:

In the following steps, you will have the chance to map a set of Thinkific actions to individual Interact triggers. A trigger can be, for example, when a quiz taker receives a specific quiz result or answers a specific quiz answer.
To open the selection of Thinkific actions to select, click on the Add Actions button
You will set a Trigger for each Quiz Result.
When a quiz taker takes the quiz and receives the specific Quiz Result this will Trigger the following Actions.
Step 2: In the slideout menu, you will see a list of available actions to run in Thinkific.
The available actions are:
Update Custom Sign Up Field: Choose an Thinkific custom sign up field from the dropdown to update the custom sign up field for new contacts with a specific value. The value will auto-populate with the trigger name, but you can customize this with any value you want. Example: For a quiz result trigger, you could choose the Thinkific custom sign up field "Quiz Result Title" from the dropdown and populate the field with the quiz result title for your quiz.

Map Form Fields to Thinkific Contact Fields
Step 1: Here you will find an overview of the way your opt-in form fields are connected to Thinkific contact fields.

Step 2: For all other fields, choose one custom sign up field from the dropdown that you would like to populate with the form value.
