Update contact
Update contact updates one or more fields on the contact record in scope. Supports appending to or clearing existing field values. This action is available on contact-scoped triggers.
How it works
- The automation reaches the step with a contact in scope
- The step updates the fields you configured with the values you provide
- The contact record is updated in the CRM
- The automation continues to the next step
Set up the action
- Open the automation builder and add a new step
- Under Businesses, select Update contact
- Select the fields to update and provide values
tip
Use Add dynamic content to populate field values from previous steps. For multi-value fields, you can choose to append to existing values rather than replacing them.
