Prepare a filtered contact export for campaign review
When campaign list reviews recur, automate the start of a filtered export so the data handoff is easier to pick up.

Action
Create Contact Export
Tool to create a contact export job for a Mailtrap account. Use when you need to export contacts with filters. The export is processed asynchronously - the response includes a job ID and status. Check the status field; when it becomes 'finished', the url field will contain the download link for the exported contacts file. Filters are required - you must specify at least one filter such as subscription_status (subscribed/unsubscribed) or list_id (array of list IDs).
Why this helps
Remembering export filters and starting the job manually adds friction to list reviews and campaign handoffs.
- Start an export with a required filter such as subscription status or list ID.
- Make recurring campaign list reviews easier to initiate.
- Use a consistent process for handing filtered contacts to the next step.
Setup
Build it in a few focused steps.
- 1Connect Short.io and Mailtrap to Notis once through the portal.
- 2Create a scheduled automation in the portal or ask Notis to prepare a filtered campaign contact export.
- 3Write one plain-language instruction naming the needed export filter, such as subscription status or a campaign list.
- 4Choose a cron trigger and a channel for run reports.
- 5Run one example and confirm the export job starts with the intended filter.
