How do I add a new contact to Agile CRM?

Short answer: You can create contact in Agile CRM by hand from its own interface, but it won’t repeat itself. On TinyCommand, add the Agile CRM Create Contact action to a workflow, map its 6 inputs from any upstream app, and it runs automatically every time the trigger fires. No code, and a free tier to start.

FAQ

Questions about Create Contact.

What does the Create Contact action do in Agile CRM?

Inserts a new contact with standard fields (name, email, phone), optional custom fields, and initial tags. Agile CRM dedupes on email — duplicate emails get rejected with an error rather than upserting. Wrap in a Search-first pattern if you're unsure whether the contact exists.

What inputs does Create Contact require?

Required: First Name, Email. Every input accepts a static value or a variable from any upstream node in your workflow.

Can I use dynamic inputs from earlier workflow nodes?

Yes. Any field on this action can pull values from upstream nodes, whether that's a form response, a trigger payload, an AI output, or a lookup result.

What happens if Agile CRM returns an error?

The run history shows the failed step with its input and the error message Agile CRM returned, so you can fix the input and run the workflow again. Automatic retries are built into HTTP steps only, where you can also set your own retry count and delay.

Does Create Contact support batch operations?

Run Create Contact inside a loop to process each item in an array. TinyCommand does not throttle calls for you, so for large arrays add a Delay step if you need to stay within Agile CRM's rate limits.
