Why this helps

Partner details can be hard to find when they remain in course conversations or notes.

  • Create a contact record from supplied partner details.
  • Make partner relationships easier to find in Salesforce.
  • Reduce manual transcription after a conversation.

  • 1Connect Blackboard and Salesforce once in the Notis portal.
  • 2Create an automation in Automations, New Automation, and name it.
  • 3Tell Notis to create a Salesforce contact from partner details you submit and associate it with an account when you provide a valid reference.
  • 4Choose the webhook trigger and where run reports should go.
  • 5Test with one partner contact and review the record.

Questions about this workflow

Can this create an account too?

This workflow uses the contact creation action. Provide a valid existing account reference if you want the contact associated with an account.

Can custom Salesforce contact fields be populated?

Only fields supported by your Salesforce configuration can be used. Custom fields may need to be set up in your organization first.
