Create contact

Creates a new contact in salesforce with the specified information.

Why this helps

You receive emails from new contacts but importing them into Salesforce is manual and takes time. Many slip through and never make it to your CRM.

  • Automatically captures all email senders as Salesforce contacts
  • Builds your contact database without manual data entry
  • Ensures no contact opportunity falls through the cracks

Setup

Build it in a few focused steps.

  • 1Connect Gmail and Salesforce to Notis.
  • 2Create an automation with the prompt: 'When I receive an email from someone new, create a contact in Salesforce with their name, title, and email.'
  • 3Select 'New Gmail Message Received' as your trigger.
  • 4Receive a test email from a new contact—Notis will create their record in Salesforce automatically.

Questions about this workflow

What if the email doesn't include a title or company?

Notis creates the contact with the information available and leaves other fields blank. You can update them manually or Notis can infer context if available.

Will this create contacts for every email sender?

By default, Notis creates contacts for new senders to avoid duplicates. You can adjust the rule in your prompt if you need different logic.
