ActiveCampaign

Manage contacts, accounts, deals, tags, lists, and e-commerce data in ActiveCampaign.

Overview

ActiveCampaign is a marketing automation platform that combines email marketing, CRM and sales automation. This node reads and writes your ActiveCampaign data through the v3 API: create, fetch, update and delete contacts, accounts, account-contact links, deals and deal notes, tags, connections, e-commerce customers, e-commerce orders and e-commerce order products, and page through your lists. Choose a resource first, then an operation — the node then shows only the fields that operation needs.

Output Data

The ActiveCampaign response is merged onto the incoming item JSON — the node returns { ...inputItem, ...result }, so upstream fields survive unless the API returns a field with the same name. Binary data on the input item is forwarded unchanged.

Every operation except Get Many produces one output item per input item. The Get Many (getAll) operations on Account, Connection, Contact, Deal, E-Commerce Customer, E-Commerce Order, E-Commerce Order Product, List and Tag fan out — one output item per record returned — whenever Return All is on or Simplify is on. With both off, a Get Many produces a single item carrying the raw response envelope instead.

What lands on the item depends on the operation:

Operation	Merged result
Contact, Account, Account Contact and Tag create / update; Contact Tag add; Contact List add / remove	The created or updated record’s own fields, unwrapped from the response envelope.
Any resource’s get; Deal, Connection, E-Commerce Customer and E-Commerce Order create / update; Deal createNote / updateNote; E-Commerce Order Product getByProductId / getByOrderId	The raw response envelope, with the record nested under its own key (for example deal, connection, note).
Any delete; Contact Tag remove	success: true when ActiveCampaign returns an empty body, otherwise the parsed response. Contact List add also falls back to success: true when the API returns nothing.
Get Many with Simplify on, or Return All on	One item per record, carrying that record’s own fields.
Get Many with Simplify off and Return All off	A single item carrying the raw envelope — the record array under its resource key, plus the pagination metadata ActiveCampaign returns.

A contact created from an item that already carried an orderRef field comes out looking like this:

{
  "orderRef": "A-1001",
  "email": "john.doe@example.com",
  "firstName": "John",
  "lastName": "Doe",
  "phone": "+1234567890"
}

Here orderRef came from the input item and the rest is the ActiveCampaign record. The record also carries the identifiers, timestamps and relationship links ActiveCampaign assigns — reference them downstream by whatever names the API returns, for example {{ $json.id }}.

Usage Examples

• Create a new contact in ActiveCampaign
• Get all deals from ActiveCampaign
• Add a tag to a contact
• Create an e-commerce order
• Update account information

Example Configuration

Create a contact from an incoming item, updating it instead of failing when the address already exists:

{
  "type": "active_campaign",
  "parameters": {
    "resource": "contact",
    "operation": "create",
    "email": "{{ $json.email }}",
    "updateIfExists": true,
    "additionalFields": {
      "firstName": "{{ $json.firstName }}",
      "lastName": "{{ $json.lastName }}",
      "phone": "{{ $json.phone }}",
      "fieldValues": {
        "property": [
          { "field": "1", "value": "{{ $json.plan }}" }
        ]
      }
    }
  }
}

Page through every active contact created since a given date, oldest email first, emitting one item per contact:

{
  "type": "active_campaign",
  "parameters": {
    "resource": "contact",
    "operation": "getAll",
    "returnAll": true,
    "simple": true,
    "additionalFields": {
      "status": 1,
      "filters[created_after]": "{{ $json.since }}",
      "orderBy": "email",
      "orderDirection": "ASC"
    }
  }
}

Apply a tag to a contact:

{
  "type": "active_campaign",
  "parameters": {
    "resource": "contactTag",
    "operation": "add",
    "tagId": "{{ $json.tagId }}",
    "contactId": "{{ $json.contactId }}"
  }
}

Open a deal against an existing contact, with the value in cents:

{
  "type": "active_campaign",
  "parameters": {
    "resource": "deal",
    "operation": "create",
    "title": "{{ $json.company }} renewal",
    "contact": "{{ $json.contactId }}",
    "value": 50000,
    "currency": "usd",
    "group": "1",
    "stage": "2",
    "additionalFields": {
      "description": "Opened automatically from {{ $json.source }}",
      "percent": 25
    }
  }
}

Record an e-commerce order with its line items, triggering ActiveCampaign automations:

{
  "type": "active_campaign",
  "parameters": {
    "resource": "ecommerceOrder",
    "operation": "create",
    "externalid": "{{ $json.orderId }}",
    "source": 1,
    "email": "{{ $json.customerEmail }}",
    "totalPrice": 9999,
    "currency": "USD",
    "connectionid": 1,
    "customerid": "{{ $json.acCustomerId }}",
    "externalCreatedDate": "{{ $json.placedAt }}",
    "orderProducts": [
      {
        "name": "{{ $json.productName }}",
        "price": 9999,
        "quantity": 1,
        "externalid": "{{ $json.sku }}",
        "category": "Electronics"
      }
    ],

Tips

Manage contacts, accounts, deals, tags, lists, and e-commerce data in ActiveCampaign CRM and marketing automation platform.

Behavior notes

• Return All ignores Limit. With Return All on, the node pages through the whole collection 100 records at a time until ActiveCampaign reports no more. With it off, Limit is capped at 100 — the largest page the API returns — so a Limit of 500 still yields 100.
• Simplify only applies to Get Many. On (the default) the node unwraps the response and emits one item per record. Off, it emits a single item holding the raw envelope and its pagination metadata. Return All always emits one item per record regardless of Simplify.
• Money is in cents. Deal Value, Total Price, Shipping Amount, Tax Amount and Discount Amount are whole cents — $456.78 is 45678.
• Update if Exists changes what Create does. On contact Create, turning it on syncs the contact by email address instead of erroring when that address is already in your account, which makes the node safe to re-run.
• Contact List → Remove unsubscribes. ActiveCampaign has no endpoint for deleting a list membership, so Remove writes the membership back with an unsubscribed status rather than deleting the record.
• Contact Tag → Remove takes the link ID. Add takes a Tag ID plus a Contact ID and creates a contact-tag link; Remove takes the Contact Tag ID of that link, not the tag’s own ID. Keep the ID that Add returns if you plan to undo it later.
• Custom fields are keyed differently per resource. Contact custom fields are field / value pairs; account custom fields are customFieldId / fieldValue pairs. Copy the exact names when you build the collection by hand.
• Order Direction needs Order By. On contact Get Many, the sort is only applied when Order By is set; setting Order Direction on its own has no effect.
• IDs come from ActiveCampaign. Pipeline, stage, owner, list, tag and custom-field IDs are ActiveCampaign’s own IDs. Read them first — with this node’s Get Many operations, or via GET /api/3/tags and GET /api/3/fields?limit=100 — rather than guessing them.
• Chain the CRM steps. A typical pipeline creates the contact, then feeds the returned contact ID into Contact List → Add, Contact Tag → Add and Deal → Create. Set Max Concurrency lower than the default if a large batch starts hitting ActiveCampaign’s rate limits.
