- Brief description:
- Have you ever wanted to integrate Mautic marketing automation into your Drupal website, using ECA? There’s a module for that.
- Module name/project name:
- Brief history
- How old: created in Jun 2025 by Abhisek Mazumdar (abhisekmazumdar) of Dropsolid
- Versions available: 1.0.6 which works with Drupal 10 and 11
- Maintainership
- Actively maintained
- Documentation - detailed README
- Number of open issues: 1 open issues, which is not a bug
- Usage stats:
- 3 sites
- Module features and usage
- With the module installed, your ECA models can respond to Mautic webhooks, and can also make use of new actions to give you CRUD capabilities (Create, Read, Update, or Delete) for contacts and segments within ECA
- Mautic ECA declares the Mautic API module as a dependency, and you need to use it to set up an API connection, and to define any webhooks you want to use in your models
- It’s worth noting that the maintainers of Mautic ECA also seem to be involved with a number of other modules in the Mautic API ecosystem, including Mautic Personalization, as well as Mautic Content Provider, which can expose Drupal content for use in Mautic, for example to include in emails
