Find Contact Action

The "Find Contact" action is an essential feature that enables you to search for contacts based on specific, customizable criteria. This dynamic tool enables simplified contact management and targeted automation, enhancing the efficiency of workflows by quickly locating the right contacts based on key data points. For more advanced use cases, the "Find Contact" action can be configured to match contacts based on an external reference, such as a Stripe Customer ID stored in a custom field. This enables the search of contacts linked to external systems through Inbound Webhook or Custom Marketplace Triggers.

How It Works 

Insert the "Find Contact" Action

To begin, add the "Find Contact" action at the appropriate point within your workflow. This step ensures that the action is executed when needed in the automation process.

Action Name 

Update the action name to reflect its purpose.

Add Field

Specify the search criteria by selecting the relevant standard or custom field values. 

Configure multiple fields to ensure that the search will only return contacts that match all of the specified criteria, providing a highly targeted result.

Once you have added all the relevant fields, save the action to add it to the workflow.

If branching is enabled, you can define distinct paths depending on whether a contact is found. All subsequent actions will follow the 'Contact Found' branch accordingly.

By leveraging this feature, you can automate the search for specific contacts based on predefined criteria, ensuring that your workflows are both efficient and effective. Whether you are working with internal data or external references, this feature provides a seamless solution for managing and segmenting your contacts.
