Keep EmailOctopus contacts current with OneDrive updates
When subscriber records change in OneDrive, let Notis check the updated details and apply them to the matching contacts.
Trigger
File Updated
Triggers when a file's content or metadata changes.
Action
Create or Update Contact
Creates a contact if absent or updates it if already in the list.
Why this helps
A corrected subscriber record can sit unnoticed while the mailing list keeps outdated details.
- Reduce delay between an edited subscriber record and a contact update.
- Use one instruction to define which updated files matter.
- Keep a run report for review of processed changes.
Setup
Build it in a few focused steps.
- 1Connect OneDrive and EmailOctopus once in the Notis portal.
- 2Create an automation in the portal or tell Notis from any channel what outcome you want.
- 3In one instruction, ask Notis to inspect the changed subscriber record and create or update the matching contact in the specified list.
- 4Pick the File Updated trigger and choose where run reports should go.
- 5Test with one real update to a subscriber record.
Questions about this workflow
Does the trigger include the changed contact details?
The trigger provides file change information. The automation instruction should ask Notis to inspect the relevant OneDrive file for the subscriber details.
What if the email address has changed?
Tell Notis how to identify the existing contact and apply the revised address. Test this case with a real example before relying on it.
Can I limit this to a particular record file?
Describe the relevant file or records in the instruction so Notis knows what to review.
