Integration with Bitrix24 (Leads + Deals)¶
Please note:
From January 1, 2021, integration with Bitrix24 is available only for users of commercial Bitrix24 plans.
How the Integration Works¶
When a client leaves a request on the site, a new lead is automatically created in Bitrix24 (it is not possible to automatically create a deal in this integration). The visit number is passed to the lead from the roistat_visit browser cookie to an additional field named roistat.
If the manager communicates with the client by phone, they can ask for a promo code and enter this code in the roistat field.
If the value from the roistat field is accidentally deleted, Roistat will independently determine the source of the request when loading leads and deals. This way, the deal will be assigned to the right advertising channel.
-
This integration is also available for Ukrainian version of Bitrix24.
-
You can also connect the self-hosted version of Bitrix24 through this integration. To do this, follow the setup instructions below.
-
For calls via Roistat Calltracking, the call recording will be sent to the lead, and you can listen to it.
How to pass the sale date from the 'Start date' field
Bitrix24 deals contain a Start date field. If you specify this field in the experimental feature called [The name of the field from which you want to load the sales date] (/settings/project/experimental_features/#integrations_20), the sale date will be uploaded from the deal field. After updating the data, the sale date of previous deals will change.
If you want the deal creation date to be the time the deal was created, not the lead
In Bitrix24, the deal creation date is the moment when the lead was created. If you want Roistat to consider the deal creation date as the moment the deal was created in CRM, enable the experimental option called Enter the name of the field from which you want to take the date of creation.
Sending a lead to CRM¶
If the lead was not marked as a duplicate, a new lead is created with the client's contact information and additional fields configured.
When sending a lead, the phone number is passed in the Phone field.
When sending a lead to CRM, Roistat checks for duplicates only one of the following entities: Contact or Company.
Sending data from Roistat to Bitrix24 marketing analytics¶
Roistat sends the following data to Bitrix24 analytics:
- Transition source;
- Data about the device from which the client visited the site;
- UTM tags: utm_source, utm_medium, utm_campaign, utm_content, utm_term;
- URL of the page visited;
- Date of transition to the page.
You can enable the sending of this data in advanced integration settings:
If Roistat receives UTM tags from a call according to the Calltracking script, and at the same time the Send data to marketing analytics option is enabled in Bitrix24, UTM tags will be transferred to the deal in Bitrix24.
Loading data from Bitrix24 to Roistat¶
Please note:
-
The lead and the deal are connected during the first transfer of data from Bitrix24.
-
In this integration, Roistat uploads only Lead and Deal entities from Bitrix24. Roistat does not work with the Order entity.
-
If the lead has not yet been converted into a deal, it will be uploaded as a lead to Roistat. The analytics will display additional fields and lead status. The lead ID will be in the lead_{id} format, for example, lead_123.
-
If the lead was directly converted into a deal, the deal will be uploaded as a lead to Roistat. The analytics will display additional fields for the deal and lead, as well as the status of the deal. The lead ID will be in the lead_{id} format, for example, lead_123.
-
If the lead was converted into a contact, and a deal was created based on the contact without the roistat field filled in:
- Roistat will check if the deal belongs to the lead created earlier.
- If there is a connection with a previously created lead, the deal and the lead (including the source) will be linked.
- If there is no connection with the leads created earlier, the deal will be uploaded as a new lead to Roistat.
- The analytics will display additional fields for the deal and lead, as well as the status of the deal. The lead ID will be in the lead_{id} format, for example, lead_123.
-
If the lead was converted into a contact, and a deal was created based on the contact with the roistat field filled in:
- The deal will be uploaded as a new lead to Roistat.
- In the analytics, additional fields of the deal will be displayed, as well as the status of the deal. The deal ID will be in the deal_{id} format, for example, deal_123.
-
If the deal was created manually or in a way not described above, it will be uploaded as a lead to Roistat. The analytics will display additional fields of the deal, as well as the status of the deal. The deal ID will be in the deal_{id} format, for example, deal_123.
Please note:
Client name, Phone number and Email are loaded into Roistat from client data.

Step 3. Set up automatic uploading of leads to Bitrix24¶
We recommend configuring the transfer of leads to CRM via Roistat. In this case, leads are sent to Roistat first, and then Roistat sends them to CRM. To learn more about this mechanism, read this article.
If sending leads from the site to CRM is already configured using your own code, in order to exchange data with Roistat, you need to configure the transfer of the roistat_visit cookie value to CRM. To do this, open the PHP file that is configured to send requests to your CRM. Above the code for sending leads to CRM, paste the following script:
$roistatVisitId = array_key_exists('roistat_visit', $_COOKIE) ? $_COOKIE['roistat_visit'] : 'nocookie'
After that, add the received roistatVisitId
value to the data sent to CRM. If necessary, contact a web developer for help.
Setting up Product sales analytics¶
Please note:
Before setting up Product sales analytics, reinstall the Roistat integration app (see the Setting up authorization in Bitrix24 section). During installation, allow the application access to the product catalog.
Integration of Roistat with Bitrix24 allows using Product sales analytics – a tool that lets you analyze the effectiveness of sales of individual products and product groups (brands, categories). Products are uploaded to Roistat both from CRM → Inventory → Product catalog.
To set up Product sales analytics:
-
Make sure that products are created in Bitrix24. To do this, open the CRM → Inventory → Product catalog section in the Bitrix24 project:
To create a product, click on the Create Product button:
The product can be located both in the Product catalog section and in any subcategory.
-
In the Roistat project, open the Analytics section, go to the Product sales analytics tab and click Connect product analytics:
-
After the next import of deals from CRM, product information will be displayed in the Analytics → Reports section. If the products are categorized, the report will display subcategories.
Also, detailed information about the product is displayed in the deal card and in the lead card:
Product analytics works both for new deals and for deals that were uploaded to the project before Product analytics was enabled. To update data on deals created before Product Analytics was enabled, please contact Roistat Support.
Verifying the integration¶
When a client leaves a request on the site, a new lead must be created in Bitrix24 with the roistat field filled in. Leads are also displayed in Roistat:
-
In the Project diagnostics → List of submitted leads section:
-
In the Analytics section in the list of deals:
After setting up the integration, we recommend using the following Roistat tools:
* Facebook is owned by Meta Platforms, banned in the Russian Federation and recognized as extremist by a court.
