Vainu's connectors make updating and enriching your CRM records with real-time company data an easy process. An essential part of the integration process is data mapping. In this step, the desired data is chosen in Vainu and mapped to the appropriate data fields in your CRM. To offer more flexibility in the data mapping process, we've updated our connectors with new data formatting options. Let's see what this means in practice.👇
A new way to format data
There are just about as many ways and processes to use different CRM systems as there are companies. That is why the data mapping settings now include new data formatting options. A person with admin-level rights both in their CRM and in Vainu is usually the one setting up the data connection between the two. This person, who we at Vainu refer to as the Admin user, can now decide the format of certain data points when setting up the appropriate data mapping options. This change brings legacy format options as well as some new ones to the connector.
Here's a rundown of all the data points with new formatting options and the available formats:
