Tasks supported
Add Contact to List
Adds or updates the contact on the chosen Robly list. Re-submissions update the existing contact rather than creating duplicates.
Pro features
The Pro Robly integration adds:
- Custom field mapping: pick a list and AFI auto-loads any additional fields defined for that list.
- Tag assignment: apply pre-created tags to the contact (tags must exist in Robly first).
Conditional logic example
Subscribe with tag vip only when the form’s customer_tier field equals “premium”. Standard subscribers still get added but skip the VIP tag.
Troubleshooting
Integration doesn’t fire
Open AFI → Log and find the most recent entry. The log shows the request payload sent to Robly and the response received, usually pointing straight at the cause.
“Authentication failed”
Robly requires both API ID AND API Key. Both come from the same Settings → API Details page; copy them carefully (no extra whitespace).
Tags not applying
Robly tags must be pre-created in your account before AFI can apply them. Tag names sent that don’t already exist are silently dropped.
