Send new Salesforce leads to an ActiveTrail group

New leads can join the right ActiveTrail group without a manual export and import.

Trigger

New Lead Trigger

Triggers when a new Lead is created in Salesforce.

Action

Create or Update Group Member

Tool to create or update a member in a group. Use when you need to add a new contact to a specific group or update an existing member's details. The API will not return errors if the address is already in the group.

Why this helps

Copying new leads into an email group adds busywork and leaves room for follow-up gaps.

  • Keep a chosen group current as leads arrive.
  • Create or update group membership without repeated manual entry.
  • Skip or flag records that lack the details needed to add them.

Setup

Build it in a few focused steps.

  • 1Connect Salesforce and ActiveTrail once in the Notis portal.
  • 2Create an automation in Notis and give it a clear name.
  • 3Describe the outcome in one instruction, including the ActiveTrail group to use and what to do when a lead has no email.
  • 4Pick the Salesforce New Lead trigger and choose where run reports should go.
  • 5Test with one real lead and review the run report.

Questions about this workflow

Does this send an email campaign?

No. It creates or updates group membership in ActiveTrail. Sending a campaign requires a separate ActiveTrail process.

What if a lead has no email address?

Tell Notis in the instruction how to handle incomplete records, such as skipping them and reporting the missing email.
