Issue Facebook Lead Ads was configured in a Sandbox subscription and then migrated to the Production subscription after testing was completed. After that swap, the Facebook Lead Ads integration is not passing records to the Production subscription.   Solution Deleting the Facebook LaunchPoint service does not unregister it from the Facebook Lead Ad pages. To ensure that the Facebook Lead Ad pages is unregistered from the Sandbox subscription and successfully reconnects to the production subscription, perform the following steps: 1. Go into the sandbox and create (or Edit if it still exists) the Facebook LaunchPoint again (just leave the default settings for pages and fields). 2. Once created, go back into the Facebook LaunchPoint and UNSELECT all of the pages that are currently selected (You want to make sure no pages are selected at this point). 3. Save. By doing this you will be unregistering the Marketo endpoint from all the Facebook Lead Ad pages for the sandbox subscription. You can then delete the LaunchPoint if you wish from the Sandbox subscription. 4. Go into the production subscription, since the Facebook LaunchPoint service exists, go back in edit mode and select all the pages you want to leads to come from. 5. Save. This should be able to successfully select the Facebook Lead Ad pages and register them to the production subscription. 6. Test one of the Facebook Lead Ad pages and verify if the data syncs to the Production subscription.

Issue You have a tracked link in an email. When the email is received, the link breaks and doesn't redirect to the desired page. The link works perfectly when the tracking is disabled. Solution The server hosting the link might not accept parameters, or might limit the number of characters in the parameter, etc. When tracking is enabled, Marketo adds mkt_tok=manymanycharacters. The issue could be either the page does not accept parameters at all, or does not accept such long parameters. You might need to reach out to the developers of that page and investigate this. Our suggestion is to have “track link” checked but not the “Include mkt_tok”. Unchecking just Include mkt_tok will still allow the link to be tracked, but after redirect, the destination URL will not include the mkt_tok query string parameter.

Issue A Smart Campaign with a "Person is Created" trigger, in combination with additional filters, doesn't qualify people as expected.   Solution Using filters with "Person is Created" triggers can cause issues when a person is created, but the values that the filters look for aren't filled in yet. When the Smart Campaign checks the filters, the data it looks for hasn't been filled in yet, so people don't qualify. Here are a couple alternatives: A scheduled batch campaign that looks for people who were created and meet those filters. Use the Person is Created trigger, but use a wait step to allow time for the date to fill in, followed by choices in the flow to qualify people.

Issue You created lists in SFDC and Marketo with identical filters/constraints for a field on the Opportunity Object, but the Marketo list is returning many more leads than the SFDC list. Solution The issue is due to Marketo field string values not being case-sensitive. Salesforce is case-sensitive, and will generate Opportunity IDs with the same letters, but with different capitalization arrangement. For example:   In SFDC: "0060y000016PzXw" is a different Opportunity ID than "0060y000016PZxW" In Marketo, these two IDs are considered identical. As a result, Marketo will return leads that are not showing up on the Salesforce list. Adding the varied-case ID to the SFDC list filters will return the extra leads from Marketo.       Smart List filters are not case-sensitive in Marketo, and will qualify leads with matching field values, regardless of letter case. One work-around option would be to use a 'Company Name' filter (or other known value) to further limit the leads in Marketo associated with the Opportunity.    Who This Solution Applies To Customers synced to SFDC

When you ask Marketo to add a Salesforce contact to a lead queue, Marketo creates a duplicate lead in Salesforce and adds that to the queue instead. The reason why Marketo creates a duplicate is because Salesforce queues can only have leads in them, not contacts.  If you try to add a contact to a queue, Marketo can either do nothing or create a duplicate lead and add that to the queue.  We opted for the duplicate.   If you want to prevent this behavior in your campaigns, use a filter on "SFDC Type is Lead" to limit the action to only leads

Article Text If you're finding that boxes in your Facebook Lead Ads setup are not staying checked, the issue may be related to your sandbox. This fix applies only if you have ever previously set up the same pages in your sandbox.   In this situation, you began by going to Admin > Integration > LaunchPoint and adding Facebook Lead Ads. During initial setup, you checked the boxes for the Facebook pages you want to connect to Marketo. It appeared to be set up correctly.     However, you later discovered that one or more of them actually fail to work. The next time you looked at it, some of the boxes were mysteriously un-checked.     The issue here is that the page/s you selected were previously used in a sandbox (for instance, to test them out before setting them up in production). Once you decided to move them to production, your natural assumption was that you needed to delete the sandbox integration and re-create it in production.   However, deleting the integration from the sandbox does not break the connection with Facebook. As far as Marketo is concerned, that page is still in use by the sandbox, even if the integration is deleted.   To resolve this issue, you will need to clear the page from use on the old instance and allow it to be used on the new instance. Follow these steps: Log into the instance where the Facebook page was previously used. Create a new FB Lead Ads integration (with the user who has admin rights on the page that unchecked itself). Uncheck the page and click Next. Ignore mapping and click Save.   Note: It isn't possible for Marketo Support to tell you which instance the Facebook page was used on.

Any emails being sent as part of 'Forward to Friend' will create that user as a new lead (provided that the lead does not already exist in Marketo). When leads are created in Marketo via the 'Forward to Friend' feature, Marketo automatically unsubscribes the lead records in order to protect our global customers from anti-spam laws. This is because a lead being sent a forwarded email doesn't qualify as opting in to a mailing list and also prevents them from getting any other emails by accident.

Issue Issue Description Marketo allows you to upload any file type to your instance (100MB or less) but these files don't always download automatically or open in a new browser tab or window consistently between users.   Solution Issue Resolution Marketo's servers are not configured to force a download, so any desired effect is up to the user and/or utilizing custom code to achieve that effect. How a file is handled or displayed is largely up to the browser and you will need to test whether your specific desired outcome is possible. Keep in mind, this may vary by file type and file size and may not be feasible.
