# Connect ActiveCampaign and Ontraport

When **Contact unsubscribed from list** fires in [ActiveCampaign](https://apiant.ai/connections/activecampaign), your agent runs **Create or Update Contact** in [Ontraport](https://apiant.ai/connections/ontraport), or **New Contact** in Ontraport to **Add contact** in ActiveCampaign. Describe the whole flow and it is built, tested on every scenario and kept running.

ActiveCampaign **19** triggers ActiveCampaign **84** actions Ontraport **5** triggers Ontraport **14** actions

What the catalog holds today. Ask for anything missing and your agent reads the API documentation and adds it.

## What do you want ActiveCampaign and Ontraport to do together?

Give your AI client this address.

`https://mcp.apiant.ai`

One connection does both: ask your client to act in an app once, or have it build an automation that keeps running. Any client that takes a remote MCP server. Nothing to install. Create your free account, then sign in once in your browser.

### Set it up in your client

### Claude Code

Run this in the directory you want to work in.

`claude mcp add --transport http -s project apiant-ai https://mcp.apiant.ai`

Start Claude Code there, approve the server, and sign in in the browser page it opens.

[Claude Code guide (opens in a new tab)](https://apiant.ai/docs/mcp/claude-code)

### Claude, web and desktop

Open Customize, then Connectors, then Add custom connector, and paste the address. On Team and Enterprise an owner adds it first.

[Setup guide (opens in a new tab)](https://apiant.ai/docs/mcp)

### Cursor

Add the address to your MCP configuration as a server URL. Cursor signs you in in your browser.

[Setup guide (opens in a new tab)](https://apiant.ai/docs/mcp)

### Zed

Open Settings, then AI, then MCP Servers, then Add Server, then Add Remote Server.

[Setup guide (opens in a new tab)](https://apiant.ai/docs/mcp)

### Codex and the ChatGPT desktop app

Open Settings, then MCP servers, then Add server, and choose Streamable HTTP. From the terminal, Codex takes the address with its own add command and then signs you in.

[Setup guide (opens in a new tab)](https://apiant.ai/docs/mcp)

### Any other MCP client

Paste the address where the client asks for a remote MCP server URL, and name the server apiant-ai where it lets you. APIANT's skills reach the client over the same connection.

Teams that run ActiveCampaign for email and Ontraport for CRM usually keep the same people in both. Connecting them means a tag, unsubscribe or deal task in ActiveCampaign can update the matching Ontraport record, and new Ontraport contacts, tasks and transactions can land back in ActiveCampaign as contacts, deals and notes.

Questions

## ActiveCampaign and Ontraport, answered

###

### How are people matched between ActiveCampaign and Ontraport?

Email is the link. Use Find Contact by Email in Ontraport or Get contact by email in ActiveCampaign to look up the record before writing, and have the run stop when no match comes back so you never create a stray duplicate.

###

### Can tags added in ActiveCampaign show up in Ontraport?

Yes. The Tag added to contact trigger in ActiveCampaign can feed Tag Contact in Ontraport, and Tag removed from contact can feed Remove Tag from Contact so the two tag sets stay in step.

###

### What can start an automation from ActiveCampaign?

Any of ActiveCampaign's 19 triggers in the catalog, including Contact unsubscribed from list, New deal task, Tag added to contact and Deal task completed. Describe the moment in plain language and your agent picks the right one.

###

### What can your agent do in Ontraport when something happens in ActiveCampaign?

Any of Ontraport's 14 actions, including Create Task, Find Contact by Email, Remove Tag from Contact and Create Object. Your agent maps the data both ways and tests every scenario before it ships.

###

### Can it also run from Ontraport to ActiveCampaign?

Yes. When something happens in Ontraport, your agent can act in ActiveCampaign too. This page covers both directions: Ontraport's triggers and ActiveCampaign's actions are listed here as well.

###

### Do I have to build a connector for ActiveCampaign or Ontraport?

No. Both are in the catalog with their triggers and actions. You describe the automation; your agent builds it, tests every scenario and keeps it running.

###

### Can my AI client use ActiveCampaign and Ontraport without building an automation?

Yes. With your AI client connected to APIANT, ask it to do something in either app once and it runs that action on the spot. Ask for an automation and your agent builds it, tests every scenario and keeps it running. One connection covers both.

###

### What happens when something fails?

Your agent works that out for you. It plans the failure paths along with the happy path, then tests every scenario before it ships.

###

### Is there a free plan?

Yes. Every plan includes the agent, including free, and building from your own AI client spends no assistant credits.
