Keep Ably signup leads in EmailOctopus
A signup event arrives; Notis keeps the matching EmailOctopus contact up to date.
Trigger
Webhook received
Notis starts this workflow when an external tool or custom backend sends an HTTP request.
Action
Create or Update Contact
Creates a contact if absent or updates it if already in the list.
Why this helps
Manually copying signups from a real-time product into a mailing list creates delays and duplicate contacts.
- Keep signup details current in one list.
- Avoid creating duplicate contacts when a person signs up again.
- Use only events that include the email and consent needed for the chosen list.
Setup
Build it in a few focused steps.
- 1Connect Ably and EmailOctopus once in the Notis portal.
- 2Create an automation in Automations, New Automation, or tell Notis to create it from any channel.
- 3In one instruction, ask Notis to create or update the contact in the specified list from each consented signup payload.
- 4Pick the Notis webhook trigger and choose where run reports should go.
- 5Send one real signup example to test the flow.
Questions about this workflow
Does Ably provide a trigger event for this workflow?
No. Start it with a Notis webhook; an external service must send the signup payload to that webhook.
What should the signup payload contain?
It should include the person's email and the information needed for the requested contact update. Include only people who have consented to join the list.
Will repeat signups create duplicate contacts?
The Create or Update Contact action creates the contact if absent and updates it if it already exists in the specified list.
