Delete a list after Stripe customer deletion
Apply a deliberate list cleanup rule when Stripe deletes a customer, with the target list clearly identified in advance.
Trigger
Customer Deleted
Fires whenever a customer is deleted.
Action
Delete List
Delete a mailing list and all its contacts permanently; this cannot be undone.
Why this helps
A customer deletion can leave obsolete list structures behind, but cleanup needs a clear and intentional rule.
- Use a customer deletion event as a defined list cleanup signal.
- Keep the target list explicit in the automation instruction.
- Reduce manual cleanup when the policy calls for removing an unused list.
Setup
Build it in a few focused steps.
- 1Connect Stripe and EmailOctopus once in the Notis portal.
- 2Create an automation in Automations, New Automation, or tell Notis the outcome in plain language from any channel.
- 3In one instruction, identify the exact EmailOctopus list to delete when the corresponding Stripe customer is deleted and confirm this matches your retention policy.
- 4Pick the Stripe Customer Deleted trigger and choose where run reports should go.
- 5Test with one real event in a safe context and verify the intended list identity before relying on it.
Questions about this workflow
Is deleting an EmailOctopus list reversible?
No. The action description says a deleted list cannot be recovered and its contacts are permanently removed. Lists also can only be deleted if no contacts received an email in the last seven days.
Does deleting a Stripe customer mean one EmailOctopus list should be deleted?
Not by itself. The automation must specify a valid list-level cleanup policy and an exact target list.
