Automation Issue - When I import Leads

When I create an email automation sequence (based on Contact Added) and then import my data into Pipedrive it doesn't follow the automation (nothing happens) but if I add a contact manually the automation starts working.

Please can anyone advise if Automation only works when a contact is added manually or if there is a way to run an automation for imported data?

Thanks

    Hi @Musa_NQB

    There are similar threads about this. Sadly Pipedrivei doesn't currently do it.

    There are workarounds for it tho with bulk editing a Custom field to force execute the automation

    Best regards,
