Upload
It is possible to upload permissions to Tix by pressing "Drop files to upload (or click)", choose the file containing the permissions (must be CSV or TXT and include one e-mail address per row), then press Save.
Integrations
It is possible to create a integration for permission (opt in and opt out) between Tix and external email system such as Mailchimp and APSIS, Campaign Monitor and Email Platform. The permission in Tix is connected to a list in the e-mail system with the possibility to define if the permission should go both ways (if a person opt-in or out in Tix, it will have the same status in the e-mail system and vice versa) or only one way (opt-in in Tix is transferred to the e-mail system but not the other way around).
Contact Tix Support to activate the integration.
Connect permission
Permission can be connected in this ways:
- Season - Shown in the online buying process in all events and subscriptions that are connected to the season. Activated in edit season. If a permission should be removed at the specific event it can be done in edit event in the Internet tab.
- Event - Shown in the online buying process for the event. Activated in the Internet tab in edit event.
- Subscription - Shown in the online buying process for the subscription. Activated in the Internet tab in edit subscription.
Download e-mails or SMS
In the Permission report found in Reporting - Permissions, one can choose a permission and download the e-mail addresses or mobile numbers by pressing Download CSV in the Red or Blue box.
Note! The yellow box shows all the active, unique customers with the chosen permission. If the red of blue box is exported the result will be higher: there are more customers in that export than the number in the yellow box. This is caused by the fact that customer choose more than once the permission. If the customer buy tickets and choose the permission, but comes back later in time and buy more tickets and choose the permission again the customer will show up twice in the export. Therefore the export holds duplicates.
