Sparkforge imports an ActiveCampaign template or campaign by URL. Share the template in ActiveCampaign, copy the link, and paste it into the Import Template option under Emails > Email Templates. The result is an HTML template editable in the Code Editor.

Sparkforge imports email templates and campaigns from ActiveCampaign using the share URL. The imported result is an HTML template you edit in the Code Editor.

Step 1: Share the template in ActiveCampaign

From Campaign Templates

  1. Sign in to ActiveCampaign.
  2. Open Campaigns > Campaign Templates.
  3. Hover the template you want and click the gear icon.
  4. Choose Share.
  5. Click the link icon to copy the share URL, then close the modal.

From an active Campaign

  1. Open or create the campaign.
  2. Use the dropdown next to Continue to Save as Template.
  3. Open the saved template in Campaign Templates and copy its share URL.

Step 2: Import into Sparkforge

  1. Open Emails > Email Templates.
  2. Click Create New Template and choose Import Template.
  3. Paste the ActiveCampaign share URL.
  4. Preview the rendered campaign or template.
  5. Click Create Template to save the import.
  6. Name the template when prompted.

What you get

The imported template lives in the HTML Code Editor. Drag-and-drop is not the import target. Edit the HTML directly or use the template as the starting point for a new build.

Frequently Asked Questions

Can I import directly into the drag-and-drop editor?
Not currently. Imported templates land in the Code Editor as HTML. Rebuild in the drag-and-drop editor if you need a visual structure.
What name does the imported template use?
You name it during import. The dialog prompts for a template name after you click Create Template.
Will images and links survive the import?
Image URLs and links carry over as part of the HTML. Hosted images stay on ActiveCampaign's CDN unless you replace them with assets uploaded to Sparkforge.
Does the import bring across automation logic?
No. Only the email template HTML imports. Recreate triggers, segments, and sequences inside Sparkforge workflows.
