Why this helps
When event participation lives in a real-time app, the follow-up list can be easy to forget or slow to update.
- Add only contacts meeting the event criteria in your instruction.
- Keep event follow-up lists ready without manual copying.
- Preserve supplied contact details when creating the list entry.
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, describe the qualifying event, the target list, and the contact details to use when the payload includes valid consent.
- 4Pick the Notis webhook trigger and choose where run reports should go.
- 5Send one real qualifying event payload to test the flow.
Questions about this workflow
Does this workflow subscribe every event participant?
It should only create a contact when the event payload and your instruction establish that the person is eligible and consented for the specified list.
What if the payload does not contain an email?
Notis cannot create a usable contact without the information EmailOctopus requires. Make sure the event payload includes an email.
Where does the event come from?
Ably has no trigger events listed here. A system handling the Ably event must send the relevant payload to the Notis webhook.
