# ActiveCampaign integration

Connect ActiveCampaign with your Softr applications to keep your CRM, lists, and deals in sync with everything happening inside your no-code app. Capture leads from forms, push sign-ups to contacts, tag subscribers based on user actions, and build member dashboards backed by live ActiveCampaign data — all without writing a line of code.

## Overview

The Softr ActiveCampaign integration links your Softr app directly to your ActiveCampaign account so customer data flows both ways. Whenever someone signs up, fills out a form, updates a record, or takes an action in your app, you can create or update contacts, deals, accounts, and tags in ActiveCampaign automatically — and pull ActiveCampaign records back into Softr lists and detail pages just as easily.

This makes ActiveCampaign a natural fit for Softr customer portals, lead capture sites, marketing automation triggers, and member dashboards. Use it to turn your Softr forms into a marketing funnel, give your team a self-serve dashboard of open deals, or let members see and update their own CRM record from inside your app.

## Key Benefits

* **Two-way data flow:** Push new contacts and deals into ActiveCampaign and pull them back into Softr lists and detail pages, all from the same workflow builder.
* **Built for customer portals:** Give members a branded Softr experience while your team continues to run automations in ActiveCampaign — both sides stay in sync.
* **Granular segmentation:** Apply and remove tags, subscribe and unsubscribe from lists, and update custom fields based on actions inside your Softr app.
