No configuration is needed - it automatically monitors all new customer registrations on your store and extracts the necessary contact information for Omnisend. ### Create Contact App connector: [Omnisend](/content/apps/omnisend/integrate "View Omnisend integration page"/index.html)• Time to complete: 0 minutes (Auto-configured) **Why this matters:** This action takes the customer data from Shopify and creates a matching contact record in Omnisend with all their details properly formatted for your email marketing campaigns. This step automatically creates a new contact in Omnisend using the customer information from Shopify. The action maps the customer's email, phone number, first name, last name, and complete address details including country, state, city, and postal code to the corresponding Omnisend contact fields. The step handles the API communication with Omnisend and ensures all customer data is properly formatted and stored in your Omnisend contact database for future marketing campaigns. ## Frequently asked questions ### Will this workflow sync existing customers or only new ones? This workflow only captures customers who create accounts after you activate it. It doesn't sync existing customers from your Shopify store to Omnisend - you'll need to import those separately through Omnisend's import tools or run a Time Travel for this workflow to backfill historical data. ### What happens if a customer already exists in Omnisend? Omnisend will update the existing contact record with any new information from Shopify rather than creating a duplicate. This keeps your contact list clean while ensuring customer details stay current. ### Does this work for customers who checkout as guests? No, this workflow only triggers when someone creates an actual customer account. Guest checkout customers won't be added to Omnisend through this workflow since they don't create a Shopify customer record. ## Make this template your own!
