šŸ“– Contact Management
With the introduction of Track last month, the world's first completely free non-profit CRM, we've committed more resources to building new features to help you manage your supporters. Today we've added the ability to manage Contacts using Zapier and the REST API. These new additions will allow you to create, update, and delete Contact records in your Givebutter CRM using external tools and services.
āš”ļø Create Contacts with Zapier
Interested in skipping the coding and easily automating workflows associated with your Givebutter Contacts? Now you can create Zaps to do just that.
Example use cases
  • Your organization is using Givebutter and another software system together. You need accurate contact information in both systems and donā€™t want to spend time making manual updates. Use the endpoints to integrate the two systems and sync Contact information.
  • Your organization captures email addresses through a website form and would like those people to be added as Contacts in Givebutter, automatically. Use the endpoints to create new and update existing Contact information.
šŸŽ‰ More New Features
  • šŸŽ„ We've added the ability to include YouTube videos in Engage emails. Just paste in your video URL and we'll handle the rest. Because email clients don't support embedded videos, we'll automatically look up the thumbnail image from YouTube, display it beautifully with a play button overlaid atop, and link it to the video.
