For some reason I cannot get connected to my constant contact list. I am using WP Forms. I have a connection to Constant contact. When I try to connect the list it hangs on the mapping and I get a critical error has happened message. What might be my problem?

Hello MikeQ1,

 

Thank you for reaching out to Constant Contact API Developer Support. My team is here to assist outside software developers with questions about building into Constant Contact's API.

 

According to the documentation for WPForms, it looks like the account should be authenticated by the time that you get to the list selection step. If the lists are not populating for you, you may want to disconnect/reconnect the plugin, or create a new list in your Constant Contact account to see if it pushes through. From our end, it looks like the WPForms plugin was able to connect to your account successfully and that you have at least one list in your account to connect with, but if you continue to have issues with it I’d recommend reaching out to WPForms Support for further assistance troubleshooting their plugin.

NO.. problem still exists. I was able to create a working CC form and embed it into the website. I am showing a connection between WP Forms and Constant Contact but the Connection to the form is not working. I am at a loss right now.
