Create an EmailOctopus field for a new content preference

When a new content experience needs a subscriber preference, get the matching field ready in EmailOctopus.

Trigger

Webhook received

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

Action

Create Field

Creates a custom field on a mailing list.

Why this helps

A new preference or content attribute can be missed when subscriber forms and mailing lists are maintained separately.

  • Creates a custom field based on the supplied content request.
  • Helps keep subscriber data structure aligned with changing content needs.
  • Avoids manual context switching during form or newsletter updates.

Setup

Build it in a few focused steps.

  • 1Connect Agility CMS and EmailOctopus once in Notis.
  • 2Create an automation in the portal or from any Notis channel.
  • 3In one instruction, tell Notis which supplied content requests should create a custom field and on which list.
  • 4Choose the webhook trigger and a destination for run reports.
  • 5Test with one real request that includes the intended field details.

Questions about this workflow

Will this add the field to an Agility CMS form?

No. The available action creates a custom field on an EmailOctopus list; it does not update CMS forms.

What details should the webhook include?

Include the intended field label and other details required by the connected EmailOctopus action. Confirm the result in a real test run.
