Create the segment label once, so later contact organization has a clear destination.
Trigger
Webhook received
Notis starts this workflow when an external tool or custom backend sends an HTTP request.
Action
Create Tag
Creates a tag on a mailing list for contact organization.
Why this helps
Without a consistent tag, it's harder to find the people associated with a product event or experience.
- Give a segment a consistent label on its intended list.
- Reduce manual list administration.
- Prepare for subsequent contact organization using the tag.
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, specify the tag name and the EmailOctopus list where it belongs.
- 4Pick the Notis webhook trigger and choose where run reports should go.
- 5Send one real tag setup request to test the flow.
Questions about this workflow
Does the tag action add contacts to the segment?
No. It creates a tag on a list. Contact organization requires a separate contact action.
Does Ably provide an event trigger for tag creation?
No. Use a Notis webhook request from an external system or custom backend.
What details are needed?
The request should identify the list and the tag to create.
