My team exclusively uses our own HTML or custom templates. We only start from scratch. We’ve also found (and reported) many of the AI-driven insights to be unnecessarily inflammatory and alarmist. Alerts such as “critical changes needed” when the insight isn’t even truthful, are also slowing us down from completing our work.The AI tools are so prominent and dominant that it’s actually a hinderance to getting our work done now. Any way to opt out, rearrange, or disable the things we don’t use?
Hi, is there a way to download all of the emails I have ever sent out? Or export them in a way where I can save what I have sent out?
Hello!I’m trying to create an automation that sends emails X, Y and Z HOURS before a webinar date and time stored in a Date Time Custom Field, and looks like ActiveCampaign only supports sending X DAYS before, but not hours.Is this correct or I’m I missing something? And is there a workaround if a want to send emails 1 hour, 8 hours and 16 hours before a date and time stored in a Date Time Custom Field?Thanks,Ángel.-

Hey folks,Recently our company has automated bulk campaign scheduling with n8n and the deliverability has been impacted.Just a few days before we automated this process, campaigns averaged 22% Open Rate, and 0.85% Click rate.Now we are at 9% OR and 0.65% CR.What remains the same from the process: senders, email content, accounts used, volume/frequency of emails, list of contactsWhat changed: we are retrieving the templates preview content, and adding it to the message that we created with the campaign. Before, we duplicated a previous campaign, edited the content and scheduled it manually all inside ActiveCampaign.These are the endpoints we are using, in order:Create Message (API v3): /api/3/messages Create Campaign (API v1): /admin/api.php?api_action=campaign_create Retrieve Template (API v3): /api/3/template Update Message (API v3): /api/3/messages/ Send Test Email (API v3): /admin/api.php?api_action=campaign_sendWould appreciate your help, as with such a high spam rate, we can't kee
Week 4 of the Active Intelligence Challenge is live — and this one's for the automations collecting dust on your to-do list. 🔧You know what I'm talking about. The automation you've been meaning to build for months. The one that's going to save you hours every week once it's done… but you never quite get around to starting it. This week, you're building it. And Active Intelligence is doing the heavy lifting.Your Week 4 task: Open Active Intelligence and describe the automation you want to build. That's it. You don't need to know how to set it up — you just need to know what you want it to do.Paste this prompt to get started:"Help me build an automation for [describe your use case]. Walk me through the trigger, the steps, and what the goal of the automation should be." ⭐ This week's featured build: The 7-Day Drip CampaignIf you're not sure where to start, here’s an idea. A drip campaign that nurtures new contacts automatically over 7 days — no manual sends, no forgetting to follow up.
Keep going with the system you startedYou just built the backbone of a smarter customer experience in ActiveCampaign. This week is about taking one piece of that workflow and making it more useful, more connected, and more real.📌 Your one action this weekPick one workflow you started in Session 3 and finish one refinement: make the trigger more evergreen add one SMS step add one AI Action tighten the prompt that built the automation Don’t try to perfect the whole thing.

Welcome to Week 3 of the Active Intelligence Challenge! 🚀Week 3 is here, and it’s time to stop sending to the same old segments just because they’re already there. Most marketers use the same lists because building new ones is time-consuming, but this week, you’re letting Active Intelligence do the heavy lifting. Your task this week: Use Active Intelligence to uncover a "hidden" audience in your list that you haven’t targeted yet. One prompt, one fresh audience, zero manual digging. Here is your prompt to run in Active Intelligence:Copy and paste this directly into the tool:"Look at my contact list and suggest a segment I haven't targeted yet that might respond well to a re-engagement or nurture campaign."To get even more specific, try adding:"Focus on contacts who haven't opened in 60 days" or "Look at contacts tagged as [your tag] but never purchased."Or, skip the typing and use this quick-start prompt instead:“Help me segment my audience for my next campaign based on engagement pat

Happy Thursday, Community!On Tuesday, we talked about Relevance over Recurrence—the idea that what you say and who you say it to matters far more than just sending because it’s Tuesday.But even the most relevant message can get lost if it hits the inbox at the wrong time. Today’s tip is about closing that gap using Predictive Sending. The Tip: Let Data Dictate the DoorwayWhile you are busy focusing on the strategy and the “Human-in-the-Loop” moments, you can let technology handle the logistical “when.” Predictive sending isn’t just a scheduling tool; it’s a way to honor your customer’s habits.Instead of choosing a “best time to send” based on a generic global study, use the data living in your account to send messages based on individual engagement patterns.Why this matters for your strategy:The “Top of Inbox” Advantage: If a customer typically checks their email at 7:00 PM after work, your relevant strategy shouldn’t arrive at 9:00 AM and get buried under 50 other emails. Respecting t
HiI’ve recently setup WhatsApp via Active Campaign, using a rented UK mobile number from Twilio. All approved and setup in WhatsApp business manager. I’ve set the display name, however when I start new conversations they come from my mobile number number, not from my display name?Any suggestions?
Hello!Image uploads are broken in the community. Here is a video of the issue: Could you please take a look and fix it?Thanks,Ángel.-
I have created an idea Where my request is to have the possibility of add a contact to more then one account. This is lacking in AC and available in every CRM system.
Hey,I'm trying to extract contact usage and email usage that's available on the admin dashboard, to create an automation using API calls (check screenshot #2). For contact usage, I'm able to gather the data I need. But for email usage/credits/limits, I've tried using API v1, since apparently this information isn't available anywhere else, but even when using an Admin API key, I don't receive the "credits" available on the account (check screenshot #1 and the response I got from the call). While checking the API Key we are using, we made sure that the user is an Admin, that is added to the group "Admin", as instructed in the API docs.Our definition of email usage is: All emails sent in the current billing cycle (including Campaigns + automation sends) Also, we do have multiple accounts we intend to extract the email/contact usage to properly manage subscription upgrades and downgrades. We need to monitor throughout the cycle how much we have used and what's available in each account so
Happy Tuesday, Community! We’ve all heard that "consistency is king." For years, the gold standard has been the weekly newsletter, sent rain or shine, because "that’s what we always do."But here is the strategic hard truth: A consistent schedule doesn't guarantee a consistent connection.If you are sending a message just because the calendar says so, you aren’t building a relationship; you’re just creating a routine. Today, the real competitive advantage is moving from Calendar-Based Sends to Value-Based Sends. The Strategy: Audit the "Why" Before the "When"Instead of starting with the clock, start with the customer's journey. Strategic relevance is about moving away from "shouting into the crowd" and toward "answering the call."The shift looks like this: Focus on Intent: Stop asking "When should I send?" and start asking "What is the next logical step for my customer?" Respect the Inbox: Every time you send an email, you are spending "trust capital." Ensure the value they get out of

Happy Thursday, Community!On Tuesday, we talked about the power of the Human-in-the-Loop system; using automations to tell you exactly when a customer needs a person, not a prompt. Today, we’re looking at the tactical "secret sauce" to make those human moments seamless. The Tip: Move beyond "You have a new lead" alerts and build a Context Brief into your Internal Notifications.When you trigger an internal notification to yourself or your sales team, don't just send a name and an email. Use Personalization Tags to pull in the data your "Strategic Scout" (Active Intelligence) has been tracking. What to include in your "Smart Alert":Instead of a blank email, set your notification to include: The Intent Trigger: "This person just visited the [Product Name] pricing page 3 times." The Recent Win: "They just completed the [Course Name] onboarding." The Last Touch: "Their last opened email was [Subject Line] on [Date]." Why this is a "Quick Win": Zero Research Time: You (or your team) don

Hi there, I cancelled my account but was charged another $89. The whole contact you loop is a joke as I can only reach and AI bot that keep loosing connection or saying it cannot help but then no way to submit a ticket.
I have a list of just over 700, and I haven’t sent an email in three years. Is it better to just start a new list as opposed to re-engagement?
Happy Tuesday, Community! As we dive deeper into our Active Intelligence Challenge, there is a strategic paradox we need to address: The more we automate, the more valuable a personal connection becomes.In a world where every inbox is filled with AI-generated drafts and perfectly timed sequences, "Human-in-the-Loop" excellence is becoming your new competitive advantage. The Strategy: Automation as a "Human Alert System"The goal of high-level strategy isn't to remove the human from the business; it’s to use technology to identify exactly when a human is needed. Instead of automating 100% of the journey, use your data to trigger High-Value Human Moments. Strategic leaders are shifting their focus to: Identifying the "Hand-Raise": When a contact visits your pricing page three times in one hour, don't just send another automated discount. Trigger a task for your team to send a personal, 1:1 video or a direct reach-out. The "VIP" Pivot: Using automation to flag your most engaged customers
