Populate an Account Field when a Contact is added to a Campaign
Hi All,
I have created a trigger and class that populates a field on the Account when a Contact is edited, but I really want this to be triggered when a Contact is added to a Campaign.
I tried adding a trigger to the CampaignMembership object but it tells me that triggers can't be added to this object.
Which object should I add the trigger to in order to update the Account field when a Contact is added to a Campaign?
I guess the question could also be, is a Contact added to a Campaign or is a Campaign added to a Contact?
Thanks in advance.

then the answer is neither, a contact id and a campaign id are added to a campaign member object, allowing the relationship to be many -to many.
Since you cannot add triggers to CampaignMember object, there is no option to run code when a contact is added to a campaign.
you may be able to do this with a webservice and an external process, or a button on the campaign or contact that will perform the updates.
