Event | Job | Description |
---|---|---|
Subscribed to Group (C) | Send Prepared Message to Contact (C) | This automation sends a prepared message to each new subscriber. The prepared message is sent after the opt-in process is complete. The prepared message does not replace the opt-in messages. |
Subscribed to Group (C) | Store Data in Profile Attribute (C) | This automation stores information in a recipient's profile when he subscribes to a new group. This includes subscriptions via API or in the user interface. For example, this information could be the event processing date, which in this case is the subscription date. |
Subscribed to Group (C) | Add Member to Group (C) | This automation adds a contact to a group when he subscribes to a different group. A subscription always includes an opt-in confirmation step. The member is thus added to two groups at once. |
