Add or update a contact in ActiveCampaign when an email bounces in SendGrid

When an email bounces in SendGrid, add or update a contact in ActiveCampaign.

Start the 14-day trial, then find it under Templates → Library. It installs into the client you choose, switched off, with its checklist.

An email bounces in SendGrid, within seconds

Every step, in order

When it happens in the first app, the step runs in the second, with the client’s own account.

An email bounces
An email bounced, within seconds. The API key needs Event Webhook access (Mail Send alone cannot make one), and each trigger uses one of the plan’s event webhooks.
Add or update a contact
Creates the contact, or updates the one with this email.

What each client fills in

Nothing. It needs only the accounts it connects to.

The accounts it needs

Each is the client’s own, stored encrypted and never copied between clients. Until one is added the client’s checklist shows it, and nothing runs.

  • SendGrid → Settings → API Keys → Create API Key with Mail Send access; for the triggers, also the Event Webhook settings permission (user.webhooks.event.settings.read and user.webhooks.event.settings.update), or Full Access. The From address must be a verified sender.

  • ActiveCampaign

    In the client’s ActiveCampaign: Settings → Developer → copy the URL and the Key.

After you install it

It lands switched off. The client’s checklist holds exactly this:

  1. Connect the client’s SendGrid, for “An email bounces”
  2. Connect the client’s ActiveCampaign, for “Add or update a contact”

Thrum is cooking.

Get early access and you’ll be among the first in. Early members get a launch perk.
