Keep EmailOctopus contact details current
When a Mailchimp profile changes, have Notis create or update the corresponding EmailOctopus contact with the information available from the event.
Trigger
Profile Update Trigger
Fires when a subscriber’s profile is updated.
Action
Create or Update Contact
Creates a contact if absent or updates it if already in the list.
Why this helps
Profile changes can be lost when teams maintain contact records across separate email tools.
- Reduce repeated profile edits
- Keep contact records more consistent
- Avoid checking two platforms for every change
Setup
Build it in a few focused steps.
- 1Connect Mailchimp and EmailOctopus once in the Notis portal.
- 2Create an automation in Automations, New Automation, or tell Notis what you want from any channel.
- 3In one instruction, ask Notis to create or update the matching EmailOctopus contact using available Mailchimp profile details and your chosen list.
- 4Pick the Mailchimp Profile Update trigger and choose where run reports should go.
- 5Test with one real profile change and review the resulting contact.
Questions about this workflow
Will every Mailchimp field transfer?
Notis can use data returned by the trigger, but this action only supports the contact information available to it. Specify the details you want in your instruction.
What if there is no corresponding EmailOctopus contact?
Create or Update Contact creates the contact if it does not already exist in the specified list.
Does the action make a separate contact every time?
It is designed to create or update a contact, so an existing matching contact can be updated.
