Create a user from a contact
Create a user from a contact creates a Business App user from an existing CRM contact record. Use it to automatically give contacts access to Business App when they're qualified, onboarded, or reach a specific stage in your workflow. This action is available on contact-scoped triggers.
How it works

- The step creates a new Business App user using the contact's details (name, email)
- The user is associated with the contact's account
- The automation continues to the next step
Set up the action
