Contact Changed Trigger: Address Fields Support

The Contact Changed trigger now supports address-related fields, allowing workflows to start automatically when a contact’s Street Address, City, Country, or Postal Code changes.

Updated over 3 months ago

Who This Is For / When to Use

This feature is for Kyrios users who need workflows to react immediately when contact location data is updated.

Use this trigger when address changes should:

  • Notify internal teams

  • Update territory or routing logic

  • Start location-based automations

  • Sync downstream systems

What Changed in the Contact Changed Trigger

The Contact Changed trigger now includes address fields as filterable conditions.

Supported address fields include:

  • Street Address

  • City

  • Country

  • Postal Code

Workflows can now trigger the moment one or more of these fields changes, without requiring additional If/Else actions or custom-field tracking.

How Address-Based Contact Changed Triggers Work

The Contact Changed trigger evaluates whether selected address fields have been updated.

When the defined condition is met:

  • The contact is enrolled in the workflow

  • Workflow actions begin immediately

Each address field can be evaluated independently or combined with multiple filters.

How to Use Address Fields in a Contact Changed Trigger

Step 1: Open or Create a Workflow

Go to Automation → Workflow Builder, then open an existing workflow or create a new one.

Step 2: Add or Edit a Contact Changed Trigger

Add a new Contact Changed trigger or edit an existing one.

Step 3: Add Address Filters

Click Add filters, then select one or more address fields:

  • Street Address

  • City

  • Country

  • Postal Code

Choose an operator such as Has changed or Has changed to.
If required, specify the new value the field must change to.

Step 4: Save and Publish

Save the trigger and publish the workflow.
The workflow will now run whenever the selected address fields change.

Supported Operators for Address Fields

Address fields support standard Contact Changed operators, including:

  • Has changed

  • Has changed to

These operators allow workflows to respond either to any change or to a specific new value.

Why This Update Matters

Previously, reacting to address updates often required:

  • Additional If/Else logic

  • Custom duplicate fields

  • Manual data checks

Native address field support simplifies workflow design and ensures automations run exactly when location data changes, with no workarounds.

Example Use Cases

Service Area Validation

Trigger an internal alert when Postal Code changes to a serviced or non-serviced area.

Sales Territory Updates

Recalculate ownership or routing when City or Country is updated.

Data Correction Tracking

Automatically add a note or tag when a Street Address is corrected or updated.

Common Issues and Fixes

Workflow does not trigger after an address update

Cause: The selected address field did not actually change value.
Fix: Confirm the field value changed and matches the selected operator.

Trigger fires too often

Cause: Multiple address fields are updated simultaneously.
Fix: Narrow the trigger to only the required address field or use Has changed to.

Address filter option not visible

Cause: Trigger type is not set to Contact Changed.
Fix: Ensure the trigger type is Contact Changed, not Contact Created or another trigger.
