Mapping Custom Fields

You can map additional Emanate data — such as ICP score, conversation ID, and source agent — to custom fields in your CRM. Configure these mappings in SettingsIntegrationsCRM.

Troubleshooting

  • Re-authorize CRM connection
  • Check OAuth token hasn’t expired
  • Verify API permissions
  • Review deduplication settings
  • Check field mapping for email
  • Verify data quality
  • Verify field mapping is complete
  • Check field types match
  • Look for required fields in CRM

Best Practices

Map Essential Fields

At minimum, map: name, email, phone, company, and a conversation reference. Add ICP score if your CRM supports it.

Handle Existing Records

Decide your merge strategy:
  • Update: Overwrite with new data
  • Append: Add notes without changing fields
  • Skip: Don’t modify existing records

Monitor Sync Health

Regularly check:
  • Sync success rate
  • Error frequency
  • Duplicate rate
  • Data quality
