Connect SchedulingKit to ActiveCampaign via Zapier
There's no native ActiveCampaign connector. With Zapier, a booking can create or update a contact and add a tag that starts one of your ActiveCampaign automations. Separate Zaps can react to cancellations and reschedules; completed appointments need a webhook.
Connects through Zapier
There's no native ActiveCampaign connector. You build a Zap: a SchedulingKit trigger, then ActiveCampaign's Create or Update Contact and a tag or automation step. Zapier connections use SchedulingKit's API and webhooks, which are included on the Pro plan and above. You also need a Zapier account, and each Zap runs on your Zapier plan.
Known issue: signing in to the SchedulingKit app inside Zapier with an API token currently fails. Until that’s fixed, add a webhook in SchedulingKit (Settings → Webhooks, Pro plan and above) that points to a Webhooks by Zapier “Catch Hook” trigger. See API & webhooks
Features
Why Connect ActiveCampaign?
Kick off nurture sequences the moment someone books
Keep contacts tagged by the services they use
React to cancellations with a different message
How It Works
Trigger
In Zapier, choose SchedulingKit → New Booking (or Booking Cancelled / Booking Rescheduled).
Contact
Add ActiveCampaign → Create or Update Contact, matched on email.
Tag
Add a tag (for example, the service name) that your automation listens for.
Test
Make a real booking and confirm the contact, tag and automation in ActiveCampaign.
ActiveCampaign workflows
Automations by booking event
Use one Zap per SchedulingKit trigger (New Booking, Booking Cancelled, Booking Rescheduled), each adding a different tag. For a sequence that starts after the appointment has happened, send SchedulingKit's event.updated webhook to a Catch Hook and filter for status = completed.
Tagging contacts
Map the service name or ID to a tag so contacts are segmented by what they book. Tagging by how often someone books needs you to store a running count or last-booking date yourself; the booking trigger doesn't carry a client's history.
Follow-up sequences
Build the timing and content in ActiveCampaign. A booking trigger tells you an appointment was booked, not that it was attended, so use the completed-status webhook for true after-appointment follow-ups. Only send marketing email to contacts who've opted in.
What the ActiveCampaign integration doesn't do
- No native ActiveCampaign app; the connection runs through Zapier.
- No completed-appointment or booking-frequency trigger in the Zapier app.
- Marketing consent must be handled by you.
- Zapier connections use SchedulingKit's API and webhooks, which are included on the Pro plan and above. You also need a Zapier account, and each Zap runs on your Zapier plan.
