Migrate from ActiveCampaign to Mailjet

Pick a ActiveCampaign list and a Mailjet list. OpenContact reads the contacts from ActiveCampaign, keeps a copy, and writes them to Mailjet. No export file, no upload.

What gets copied

• Subscribed contacts are copied into the Mailjet list.
• Unsubscribed, bounced, complained or suppressed contacts are not added to the list. They stay excluded.
• Custom fields: ActiveCampaign custom fields become Mailjet contact properties. Fields that already exist are reused, matched by name, and values are converted to the field type.
• Tags: Tags travel with each contact and are copied into a text field called tags in Mailjet, so you can build segments from it.
• Saved segments are not copied. Rebuild them in Mailjet from the tags or fields they use.

Check first, then move

1. Connect ActiveCampaign (API URL + key) and Mailjet (API key + secret).
2. Choose the source list and the destination list.
3. Check what will happen. The preview copies nothing. It shows the source count, how many of the first 100 contacts would be copied, excluded or skipped, which custom fields will be created, and how tags arrive.
4. Confirm that your Mailjet plan can take the contacts, then start. Follow fetched, pushed and failed totals as it runs. Pause and resume at any time.

Good to know

Moving from ActiveCampaign

• Contact tags are read and travel with each contact.

Moving to Mailjet

• Unsubscribed, bounced and complained contacts are excluded from campaigns in Mailjet instead of added, so a later import cannot bring them back by mistake.
• Mailjet keeps one contact per person. Someone in several lists is one contact there, added to each list.

After the move

Sync rules keep ActiveCampaign and Mailjet consistent from now on, and suppression stays honored in both. See suppression sync.
