Hi! I've been trying to resolve this error for quite a while now, and I've encountered the following issue: whenever a user chooses not to input their email address, I receive an error message. Additionally, I don't have any options to input the ID or Contact ID from ActiveCampaign. As a result, I'm unsure about what steps to take to address this issue.

Step 2. Create or Update Contact in ActiveCampaign

This ActiveCampaign step hit an error.

Error message: The app returned "Contact id or email is required. (422)".

Hi @OrangeRentals 

Try this…

Add a Filter step to exclude lead without an email. (or you’ll have to use a dummy placeholder email address)
