Unbounce Integration Issue

[Eitan_Rapps1]

Anyone here with Unbounce forms experience?

I have an Unbounce landing page form integrated with a Marketo List. I wanted to add an additional checkbox field to the form that would sync to a Marketo Boolean (True/False) field. I added the checkbox to the form, and in the Unbounce Integration Settings I synced the Marketo field to the form field. However, each time I try using the form, there is an integration error ("Invalid value for field ____").

I think the problem could be that in Unbounce the form field (checkbox ) is a string field, while in Marketo it's a Boolean (True/False) field.

I can't find an Unbounce field that is Boolean. While Unbounce Support is looking into this, does anyone here have experience and a solution with the same issue?

Thanks.

Thank you for the offer. We will be making a decision shortly and I may take you up on that.

Thanks!

Sanford,

Couldn't agree more. No reason not to use Marketo landing pages. There are other options for creating templated landing pages that don't give you the runaround.

I meant using Unbounce pages with a working integration, which uses the Marketo Forms API.

Well, Unbounce's integration is junk (unless they've changed it in the last month). Have you noticed that it doesn't associate subsequent web activity with the lead? (And it also has a DoS vulnerability.)

You can get better results without the integration, and you don't need to worry about strict typing. (Note there really isn't any such thing as a Boolean field on an HTML form -- Marketo happens to accept the strings "yes" or "no" from the form and translate them, but that's another layer between form and database.)

We don't need it for web activity, we just use it for unsubscribe pages.

Any suggestions for solving this issue? How to interpret a string field to a True/False field in Marketo?

We don't need it for web activity, we just use it for unsubscribe pages.

Interesting... doesn't it cost a bit much for that single purpose?

Anyway, no, if their integration can't do this you can't make it so.  All you can do is avoid using the integration.
