Default Values for Additional Fields

Default Values allow you to define a fallback value for any additional (custom) field in your workspace. This ensures that even if certain data is missing during lead import, your campaigns can still run smoothly with the default value.

What are Default Values for Additional Fields?

Default Values are predefined values assigned to additional fields at the workspace level.

When importing leads:

  • If a field is not mapped or left empty, the default value is automatically applied

  • If the lead already contains a value, that value will override the default

Why is this useful?

  • Prevents missing or blank personalization fields

  • Saves time during lead import

  • Ensures consistency across campaigns

  • Reduces manual data preparation

Step by Step Approach:

  1. Go to settings -> Additional Fields -> Add New Field


  2. Create an Additional Field (e.g: coupon_code, industry, region) and assign a Default Value at the workspace level

  3. Import your leads to the campaign:

    • Empty field -> default value is used

    • Field with value -> original value is retained

Use Case Example: Coupon Codes

Scenario

You are running a campaign offering a discount to all leads.

  • Workspace Default Value:
    coupon_code = WELCOME10

During Lead Import

  • Regular leads (no coupon provided) -> automatically get WELCOME10

  • VIP leads (with custom value in CSV, e.g., VIP50) -> receive VIP50

Result

  • Standard leads receive: “Use code WELCOME10”

  • VIP leads receive: “Use code VIP50”

NOTE: Workspace Default Values for additional field apply across the entire workspace, meaning the default value can be used for that field in all campaigns and lead imports unless a specific value is provided for a lead.
