The AI Actions Library is the latest advancement in ActiveCampaign’s suite of AI-driven tools, introduced in the October 2025 product update. Released exclusively for agency partners, this feature enhances the automation experience by allowing users to access a diverse library of intelligent, ready-to-use AI actions within the automation builder.
Designed to accelerate and elevate marketing workflows, the AI Actions Library builds upon the previously introduced AI Prompt Block by offering a dynamic catalog of orchestration-ready AI functionalities. These include text classification, intent recognition, sentiment analysis, translation, and much more.
How to Access the AI Actions Library

- Pro
- Enterprise
To access:
1. Log into your ActiveCampaign account. 2. Navigate to the Automation builder. 3. Click to add a new automation block. 4. Select the option labeled AI Actions Library or a recommended intelligent action from the Suggested AI Actions section.
Step-by-Step Instructions

Step 2: Add an AI Action Block
Within the automation flow:
1. Click the '+' icon to insert a new action. 2. From the action list, locate the “AI” category (typically represented by an AI chip or brain icon). 3. Choose AI Actions Library.
Step 3: Browse the Library
The AI Actions Library user interface will display a categorized list of AI-enhanced tasks. Some of the key functions include:

Step 4: Configure AI Action
After selecting an AI action:
1. Customize the input settings – e.g., map it to a previous message or contact field. 2. Define the automation response – use conditional logic, triggers, or follow-ups depending on the output. 3. Click Save to add it to your flow.
Step 5: Test & Deploy
Test your automation using sample contacts to ensure the AI responses align with your goals. Once satisfied, activate the workflow.

Each block is modular, allowing for complex chaining and AI orchestration.
Best Practices and Tips

Troubleshooting
If you encounter functionality issues, consider the following solutions:

- **No Output Generated** – Verify that valid input is mapped (e.g., contact field contains text).
- **Inaccurate Language Detection** – Use structured input to improve recognition.
- **Delayed Responses** – AI processing may take a few seconds; avoid chaining large blocks in rapid succession.
- **Errors During Save** – Check for required fields that were left empty during configuration.
