New to automation with Zapier? You're not alone. Here are some answers to common questions about how Zapier works with Salesforce and Whova

What is required to set up a Salesforce and Whova integration?

To integrate Salesforce with Whova, you need an account on both platforms and necessary permissions to create integrations. We use triggers from events in Whova and actions in Salesforce to automate workflows. Make sure both accounts are active and have API access enabled.

Can I automatically add Whova event registrants to Salesforce as contacts?

Yes, you can set up a trigger for new event registrants in Whova which then prompts an action to create new contacts in Salesforce. This automation ensures that your contact list in Salesforce is always updated with your latest event participants.

Is it possible to update Salesforce records based on attendee participation tracked through Whova?

Certainly! You can define triggers based on attendee activity or status updates within Whova, which can lead to automated actions such as updating corresponding records or fields within your Salesforce database.

How do I handle errors when syncing data between Whova and Salesforce?

We recommend setting up error handling by configuring alerts or notifications for failed sync attempts. This allows you to manually review any issues. Detailed logs for triggered events can also help identify the source of errors during integration.

Can I customize what information is transferred from Whova to my Salesforce account?

Yes, the data mapping feature allows you to select specific fields from Whova that should map onto corresponding fields in your Salesforce records. This customization enables precise control over what information is synchronized during integration.

What types of events in Whova can trigger actions in Salesforce?

Triggers can be created based on various events such as new registrations, updates to participant details, session check-ins, or survey completions within Whova. These triggers then automate specific actions like creating or updating records in your Salesforce account.
