Create Contact

The Create Contact node adds a new row to a table. Use it to automatically build your contact list when new leads reach out.

Configuration

Table

Select which table to add the new contact to.

Field Assignments

A list of field name and value pairs. Each one sets a column value for the new contact. Values support {{variables}}, so you can pull data from the current flow context.

Example assignments:

Field	Value
name	{{sender_name}}
phone	{{sender_phone}}
source	WhatsApp
status	new
first_contact	{{current_date}}

Use Cases

Auto-create New Leads

When someone messages you for the first time:

1. Incoming Message trigger fires
2. Fetch Contact searches for their phone number
3. If Not Found — Create Contact adds them to your leads table
4. Flow continues with a welcome message

Save Extracted Information

After using AI Extract to pull an email or name from a message, create a contact record with that data:

Field	Value
email	{{extracted}}
phone	{{sender_phone}}

Tips

• Pair this with Fetch Contact to avoid creating duplicate entries. Search first, and only create if the contact wasn't found.
• You don't need to fill in every field. Set the important ones now, and use Update Contact later in the flow to add more data as you learn it.
• The newly created contact becomes the current contact for the rest of the flow, so their fields are available as {{fieldName}} in downstream nodes.
