Voluum Importer for FunnelFlux (6)
A lot of people have been asking about transitioning from
To assist with this we have developed a
So, how do these work?
Exporting landers/offers
For this, you can use our exporter available here.
Use this to export to CSV, which you can then import in FunnelFlux using the bulk CSV import tool:
Importing Voluum Campaigns
Once you are inside FunnelFlux you can access the Voluum importer from the settings menu:
From here, you can input you Voluum login details to fetch campaigns to import. You can then select the ones to import.
At the moment our import process is in beta -- we try to replicate the basic paths you have for campaigns but do not replicate the conditions/rules, so that you can save time in initial creation and modify/update as desired.
We plan to improve this importer in the future when we add advanced conditional nodes but we wanted to give a basic importer now, improvements later.
So, right now a campaign with six rules to different lander/offer combos would import like this:
The area boxed in red is where we would eventually put an advanced condition node to provide the same flow as in Voluum.
Note that you can already achieve this by putting a PHP node there and using some basic PHP code, though we know that's outside the technical desires of most users.
That's why right now we are also working on a user interface for generating complex condition code, so you visually create rules then just copy/paste some code into a node > bam it does what you want.
Eventually we'll internalise that, but I'm a fan of giving customers a pragmatic workaround before a polished solution is available.
There's a few reasons why we wanted only a basic importer at this stage:
- If we want to replicate the rules verbatim of "if X then ---> a/b/c landers followed by x/y/z offers", we have to create lots of condition nodes and separate paths in the funnel editor, the result can be cluttered/complex. We don't want you to deal with that when you are new to the tracker.
- In FunnelFlux there is no requirement for an offer to come after a lander, so the idea of sending a user to certain landers and locking them to some offers afterward doesn't align with our concepts of tracking
- There are better ways to approach this kind of flow anyway, as you can use our PHP nodes to craft complex conditions with only a few nodes
- Our Auto EPV nodes can help with dynamic redirection without having to make rules everywhere -- i.e. automatic optimisation.
Let us know if you have any questions or problems with the importer.
Nice, moving over campaigns is one of the main reasons why affiliates don't want to switch ... so this is a great tool for you guys for sure!
Good idea!

^ Yes fully agree with this suggestion.
The visual funnel builder is great and one of the things that makes FF so powerful, but improvements are always good:
- doing a mass test of offers / landers is pretty slow and cumbersome having to literally "connect the dots" one by one
- screenshots like the above look beautiful but try doing that once on a smaller laptop screen and you get stuck pretty quickly
- have a look at scapple: infinite expendable canvas in multiple directions with ability to multi-select and drag around many nodes at once
Very happy for Funnelflux and STM members that are wanting to explore
