ActiveCampaign

With Uncanny Automator, connecting your WordPress site to ActiveCampaign has never been easier.  Automatically enroll users in courses and groups or perform actions on your users when tags are added to your contacts in ActiveCampaign.

If you have the free version of Uncanny Automator, you’ll first need to connect your site with a free Uncanny Automator account, which will give you 250 free credits to use with ActiveCampaign.  If you have Uncanny Automator Pro, simply activate your Pro license key to get unlimited usage of the ActiveCampaign integration.
