- Make contact and organization relationships easier to understand.
- Use organization context from an intentional handoff.
- Route uncertain matches for human review before updating.

- 5Test with one real example and verify the contact's account.
Questions about this workflow
Does this create a new contact or account?
No. The action associates an existing Salesforce contact with an account. The records must already exist.
What should happen when the match is unclear?
Have Notis report the ambiguity and avoid changing the contact's account association.
