Invocable Actions
- Invocable actions work with Salesforce Flow.
We provide invocable actions allowing you to:
- Create or delete a subscriber list.
- Add, delete or unsubscribe a contact.
- Add, delete or unsubscribe a lead.
- Delete an email address from a list
- Start an import wizard.
- Trigger a transactional email.
Invocable actions are available in our Enterprise plan. They are an advanced feature typically set up by Salesforce administrator, developers or consultants.
Invocable Actions
To use one of our invocable actions you first need to select Campaign Monitor from the category menu. Once selected all of our invocable actions will appear.
Flows are a very advanced Salesforce feature. They should be fully understood outside of our integration before using. Although we provide invocable actions we don't support flows.
Add Contact to a subscriber list
This invocable action will add a Salesforce Contact to a subscriber list.
Contact = E.g. 0033G00000F3oCrQAJ The Salesforce Contact Id.

Resubscribe = Typically should be ignored. Defaults to FALSE. If you change to TRUE this will make a record active in Campaign Monitor even if they have been unsubscribed or on the suppression list. It should be used with caution.
Direct = Calls can be made either Asynchronously (false) or Synchronously (true). Defaults to FALSE. Asynchronous calls can be handy if you are calling the method from a trigger and don't want to hold up the user or cause issues if the code fails. Synchronously can be helpful when requiring immediate feedback on whether the call worked.

Transactional emails
