Create an ActiveTrail contact from a webhook request

Capture a new contact in ActiveTrail from the details already included in a request to Notis.

Trigger

Webhook received

Notis starts this workflow when an external tool or custom backend sends an HTTP request.

Action

Create Contact

Creates a new contact.

Why this helps

Creating the same contact record in two marketing tools adds friction and increases the chance of typos.

  • Create a contact from supplied email or SMS details.
  • Reduce repetitive contact entry.
  • Keep a contact record available for later organization.

Setup

Build it in a few focused steps.

  • 1Connect ActiveCampaign and ActiveTrail once in Notis.
  • 2Create an automation in Automations, New Automation.
  • 3Tell Notis to create an ActiveTrail contact using contact details supplied in the request.
  • 4Choose the webhook trigger and where run reports should go.
  • 5Test with one real contact and confirm the record in ActiveTrail.

Questions about this workflow

Will a newly created contact be ready for email delivery?

Not by itself. The Create Contact action does not link the contact to a group, so assign it to a group before relying on email or SMS delivery.

What does the request need to provide?

The action requires an email address or SMS number, along with any additional contact details you want to include.
