Notis

Keep Apollo contact records current from intake

Send a contact ID and the update you want captured, then let Notis update the existing Apollo record.

Trigger

Webhook received

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

Action

Update Apollo contact

Updates specified attributes of an existing apollo.io contact, identified by `contact id`; requires at least one other attribute to be provided for modification.

Why this helps

Important new context gets lost when updating a CRM record becomes a separate chore.

  • Update a specified existing contact using its Apollo contact ID.
  • Capture new information supplied by the intake request.
  • Keep a run report of the update outcome.

Setup

Build it in a few focused steps.

  • 1Connect Apollo once in the Notis portal.
  • 2Create an automation and describe the contact update in one instruction.
  • 3Tell Notis to update the specified existing contact using the ID and attribute supplied in the request.
  • 4Pick the webhook trigger and have your intake process send the contact ID and update.
  • 5Choose a report channel and test with one real contact.

Questions about this workflow

Does the request need an Apollo contact ID?

Yes. The update action identifies the existing contact by contact ID and requires at least one attribute to modify.

Will this create a contact if the ID is missing?

No. This action updates an existing contact. Provide a valid ID and an attribute to change.
