I’m trying to create a Zap where when a Crelate contact is added, the same contact is added to ActiveCampaign.  

 

I manage to input all the fields right, or at least I assume so.  But when I test the action, I get an error saying ‘

Failed to create a contact account in ActiveCampaign

The app returned "The related contact does not exist."

 

Anyone encountered this issue before?  I’m completely stumped.

Hi @vtorres_cbha

@vtorres_cbha 

The AC Contact ID field expects the internal Contact ID, rather than the concatenated First Name]]Last Name]]Email].

 

 

You can add a step before to get the AC Contact ID.
