Refresh Apollo contacts after profile updates

Profile changes flow into Apollo so sales works from the latest subscriber details.

Trigger

Profile Update Trigger

Triggered when a subscriber's profile is updated in Mailchimp

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

Contacts update their preferences or details in Mailchimp, but Apollo keeps stale information.

  • Reduce stale contact records
  • Keep sales context current
  • Avoid repeated manual edits

Setup

Build it in a few focused steps.

  • 1Connect Mailchimp and Apollo in Notis once.
  • 2Create an automation named Refresh Apollo contact.
  • 3Tell Notis to find the matching Apollo contact and update it with changed Mailchimp profile details.
  • 4Pick the Mailchimp Profile Update Trigger.
  • 5Choose a report channel and test with one profile update.

Questions about this workflow

How does Notis find the matching contact?

Tell Notis which available subscriber identifier to use, such as email, and it can search Apollo before updating.

What happens when no Apollo contact matches?

Notis can report the mismatch so you can decide whether to create a new contact.
