# Constant Contact

## What It Does

Creates a new contact in Constant Contact when a workflow fires. Existing contacts (matched by email) are skipped to prevent duplicates.

## Authentication

OAuth2. When adding Constant Contact as a connection step in an automation, click **Connect** and authorize access. The connection requires the `contact_data` scope to search and create contacts.

## Data Sent to Constant Contact

| Midbound Field                    | Constant Contact Field        |
| --------------------------------- | ----------------------------- |
| Work email (fallback: personal)   | Email address                 |
| First name                        | First name                    |
| Last name                         | Last name                     |
| Job title                         | Job title                     |
| Company name                      | Company name                  |
| Work phone (fallback: personal)   | Phone number (work or mobile) |
| Street, city, state, zip, country | Street address                |

## Key Behaviors

* **Email required** — Contacts without an email address are skipped.
* **Deduplication** — Midbound searches Constant Contact by email before creating. If found, creation is skipped entirely.
* **Permission to send** — New contacts are created with implicit email permission, per Constant Contact's API requirements.
* **Phone type mapping** — Work phones are labeled "work"; personal phones are labeled "mobile."
* **Scope requirements** — If the connection lacks the `contact_data` scope, you will see an authorization error. Reconnect and ensure the scope is granted.

## Using with Workflows

1. Create an audience targeting your ideal contacts
2. Set up a workflow triggered by audience entry
3. Add **Push to Constant Contact** as the action
4. Visitors matching the audience criteria get added to your Constant Contact account
