Add Gifts To Batch

Add one or more gifts (donations) to an existing gift batch in Blackbaud Raiser's Edge NXT. Use this tool when you need to: - Append new gifts to an open batch for later processing - Batch multiple donations together before committing them - Add gifts with detailed information (payments, splits, custom fields) Prerequisites: - The batch must already exist (use a create batch action first if needed) - The batch must be in "open" status (not committed) - You need the batch_id (system record ID) and constituent_id (donor ID) for each gift Note: This action returns response details for all HTTP status codes (including errors). Check the status_code field in the response to determine success (200) vs errors (4xx/5xx).

Why this helps

Donation commitments in discussion threads often never make it into the operational queue.

  • Captures commitments while context is available
  • Keeps batch preparation current
  • Reduces dropped follow-ups

Setup

Build it in a few focused steps.

  • 1Connect Discord and Blackbaud in Notis once.
  • 2Create an automation for fundraising threads.
  • 3Tell Notis to detect a clear donation commitment, validate the available details, and add it to the specified open Blackbaud batch.
  • 4Pick New Thread Created as the trigger and choose a report channel.
  • 5Test with one real fundraising thread.

Questions about this workflow

Will vague interest become a gift?

No. Instruct Notis to add only explicit commitments with sufficient donor and amount details.

Can incomplete commitments be reviewed instead?

Yes. Tell Notis to report incomplete commitments for manual follow-up.
