Ticketing – Promotions (access key import)

image-20260304-101112.png


Overview

This screen appears after clicking + Create campaign inside Ticketing → Promotions → Access keys, with Creation = Import selected.

Instead of automatically generating keys, this option allows you to use your own predefined access keys.

This is typically used when:

  • You already have a list of access codes

  • Codes are distributed externally

  • You integrate with external systems

  • You want specific, recognisable key formats

What You See in This Screen

Modal Header

Title: Create Keys

Top-right corner:

  • X (close icon) → Closes the modal without saving.

  1. Name (Required)

Field label: Name*

Placeholder: Enter the name of your campaign

Purpose:

  • Define the internal campaign name.

  • Used in the Access keys overview for identification.

This name is internal and does not represent the actual access codes.

  1. Creation Method (Required)

Field label: Creation*

Selected option: Import

Purpose:

  • Indicates that access keys will be uploaded manually.

  • The system will not generate codes automatically.

  • You must provide the key list in a later step.

This is used when:

  • You want full control over key values.

  • Codes must match external distribution lists.

  • Keys are pre-generated by another system.

  1. Max Order Amount (Required)

Field label: Max order amount*

Numeric field with minus (–) and plus (+) controls.

Purpose:

  • Defines the maximum number of tickets a customer can purchase per order when using an imported access key.

Impact:

  • Prevents bulk purchases.

  • Controls order-level purchasing behaviour for restricted access.

  1. Uses (Required)

Field label: Uses*

Dropdown (example: Once)

Purpose:

  • Defines how many times each imported key can be used.

Possible configurations may include:

  • Once

  • Multiple times

Important:

This applies per individual key from the imported list.

Example:

If set to Once:

  • Each imported key becomes invalid after a single use.

Navigation & Actions

Cancel

Closes the modal without saving.

Next

Proceeds to the next step of the import flow.

The Next button remains disabled until:

  • Name is entered

  • Required configuration is completed

In the next step, the user will typically:

  • Upload a CSV file

  • Paste a list of keys

  • Validate key format

What This Screen Actually Controls

This screen defines:

  • The campaign identity

  • That keys will be imported instead of generated

  • Maximum tickets per order

  • Per-key usage limits

It prepares the campaign for:

  • Manual key upload

  • External system integration

  • Controlled distribution

It does NOT yet define:

  • Which tickets are unlocked

  • Validity dates

  • Shop restrictions

  • Advanced campaign logic

Those steps follow after clicking Next.

Important Considerations

  • Imported keys must be unique.

  • Incorrect formatting may cause upload validation errors.

  • Usage limits apply per key.

  • Max order amount prevents purchase abuse.

Import is best suited for:

  • Partner campaigns

  • Corporate distribution

  • External marketing tools

  • Predefined access lists
