Keep new contact details available in Backendless

Notis can place selected details from each new Salesforce contact into a Backendless hive map, keyed by the contact identifier.

Trigger

New Contact Trigger

Triggers when a new Contact is Created in Salesforce.

Action

Map Put

Tool to set or update key-value pairs in a hive map. use when you need to add or update multiple entries in a hive map.

Why this helps

New contact information may need to be copied by hand before other processes can use it.

  • Capture selected details as contacts are created.
  • Use a stable contact identifier to keep entries distinct.
  • Make contact context available to other Backendless connected processes.

Setup

Build it in a few focused steps.

  • 1Connect Salesforce and Backendless once in the Notis portal.
  • 2Create an automation in Automations, New Automation, or tell Notis the outcome in plain language from any channel.
  • 3In one instruction, ask Notis to store selected details from each new Salesforce contact in a Backendless hive map keyed by its Salesforce identifier.
  • 4Pick the Salesforce New Contact Trigger and choose where Notis should send run reports.
  • 5Test with one real new contact and confirm the expected hive entry appears.

Questions about this workflow

Does this keep the hive entry updated later?

This trigger runs for new contacts only. Use the Contact Updated trigger for changes to existing contacts.

Do I need a hive first?

Yes. Map Put sets or updates entries in a hive map, so specify the hive to use and ensure it exists.
