You can add a workflow step to automatically update a contact’s data. This is useful if they have completed an action within the workflow.
Each time you add the ‘Update Contact Details’ step to a workflow, you must complete three steps:
- Type of Information: Choose the type of data field that you want to be updated.
- When choosing the type of information you wish to update, you can select one of two options:
- Contact Data: Update a default field.
- Custom Fields: Update a field that you have manually added to your contact database.
- When choosing the type of information you wish to update, you can select one of two options:
- Data Field: Choose the specific data field that needs to be updated when the workflow step is triggered.
- New Value: Specify the new value that you would like the contact to be updated to.
Please note: The data type for the field you are updating and the new value that you specify must match, for example, if you are working with a numerical field, the value you select must also be numerical, otherwise the change will not be completed.
