Lead Provider Campaign ID: This identifier differentiates between various lead providers for campaigns within an organization.

Included in webhooks that can be posted to third-party systems
Included in the inFlow application for agents to view
In the Cost fields, complete the following:
Note: Some fields may be greyed (disabled) out depending on which marketing channel is selected. The Fields article provides more details about the fields in the Cost section.
Cost Per Lead: This field specifies the cost per lead associated with the campaign.
Leads Purchased: This specifies how many leads are purchased for the campaign.
Total Cost: This is equivalent to Cost per Lead x Leads Purchased.
In the Distribution fields, complete the following:
Distribution Type: This determines how leads are dispersed to agents in a distribution group.
Distribution Group: These agents are grouped together by defined characteristics who can receive leads via the campaign.
Initial Status (required): This is the initial disposition of a lead.
Initial Activity (required): This is the initial action that was completed.
Default Agent: Leads that do not have eligible or available agents to receive them are sent directly to the Default Agent if one has been assigned. This field is only available for Distribute Agent-Round Robin, Distribute-Ring All, and Distribute Agent-Direct distribution types. If a Default Agent has not been assigned, the leads are sent to Lead Exceptions.
Information about Distribution Types is found in the Distribution article. Information about Distribution Groups is found in the Distribution Groups article.
In the Data Upload field, upload any CSV file related to the campaign. See the How To: Upload a CSV File to Insellerate article for details.

Follow the instruction found in the How It Works: Inbound Call Routing article.
Click Add to complete creating the campaign.
Once a campaign has been created, the Post Url field is automatically added. It contains the URL to which vendors will send data. The Post Url field accepts JSON and XML posts for its specified import template.
NOTES:
Marketing administrators can post all leads to a single Post Url and define which campaign they should be redirected to in the lead post. This feature is helpful when receiving purchase, refinance, and other lead types via the same form or a third-party system that is unable to post to multiple campaigns. See the Lead Distribution Campaign Redirect article for details.

See the How to: Post a Lead to Insellerate article for tips
Import Template: Lending Tree
If the selected Import Template is Lending Tree, when the campaign is created, the original Post Url functions similarly to the redirect and includes Lending Tree within the URL.
