Example

Example workflow

A realistic scenario showing task, time, and outcome.

At 10:24 AM, a new volunteer submits the form with name Maria Costa and NIF 123456789. The AI Agent searches SinergiaCRM and finds no matching contact, so it creates Maria as a new contact, adds a volunteer relationship, and notifies the team with Maria's contact details and submission data.

FAQ

FAQ

Common concerns about using the AI agent for volunteer intake.

Yes. It uses the stic_identification_number_c field to match existing contacts and prevent duplicates. If multiple potential matches are found, it prefers the most recent valid match and flags ambiguities for review. You can adjust the deduplication rules in settings. In edge cases, a manual check can be triggered automatically. This keeps the CRM clean while preserving important historical relationships.

If required fields are missing, the AI agent logs the error and may halt creation for that submission to avoid incomplete records. You can configure validation to either skip, retry, or prompt for missing data. The system returns an actionable error with the submission details for quick remediation. Operationally, this prevents partial or incorrect CRM entries from being stored.

Yes. The Gmail node content and subject can be edited to reflect your tone and what data you want highlighted. You can include or exclude fields like name, NIF, program, and submission time. The customization applies to all team notifications and can be tested in a sandbox before going live. This ensures consistency with internal communications.

The AI agent will retry API calls based on configured intervals and retry limits. If the CRM remains unavailable, it logs the incident and queues subsequent submissions for later processing. You’ll get an alert when failures exceed the threshold. This ensures data integrity while maintaining visibility into outages.

Yes. It can handle sequential or parallel processing of multiple submissions. Each submission is deduplicated by NIF and related to the correct contact. The system maintains an audit trail for each batch item. Batch processing helps scale volunteer intake during campaigns or events.

The NIF field is used to deduplicate and correctly relate volunteers to existing contacts. If NIF is missing, the agent can still create a new contact but may not perform deduplication across records. It’s recommended to require NIF on forms or make it a mandatory field in SinergiaCRM. Without NIF, duplicates may occur and relationships may be less accurate.

Map form fields in the Form Trigger node to corresponding SinergiaCRM fields, ensuring the NIF is stored in stic_identification_number_c. The AI agent uses these mappings during creation and updates. You can adjust mappings whenever your form structure changes. This keeps the CRM aligned with current form data.
