Build a List in Salesforce CRM InsideView Refresh Integration

  • Created

InsideView Refresh allows you to receive updates for your Salesforce CRM account and contact data based on lists/rules that you define.

As soon as a list runs successfully, you will be able to review the total number of matches and updates processed by that list.

This article provides detailed instructions about how to build lists.

Step Description Details
1 Go to the Home page To build a new list, click Start.

This screen appears when you are building a list for the first time in InsideView Refresh:

For example, select the New List from Criteria option to build a new list using search criteria filters.

List Details

  • List Name – name of the list.
  • Priority – set the priority value from 1 to 3.
  • Manage matched accounts – choose either the Manage or Exclude option for matched accounts.
  • Also manage contacts associated with matched accounts – select this check box to receive contact matches and updates from your matched accounts. If this check box is not enabled for your InsideView Refresh account, the following error message appears. refresh_list3_small.png

    In this case, you must contact support@insideview.com to provision your account to manage contact matches and updates.

  • Add Rule - define the search filter criteria for your list with field name, operator and its value. Here are the filter criterion definitions:
    • Field Name – enter the field that you want to use to search for accounts. For example, you can enter Account Name or Account Type.
    • Operator – select an operator for the field that you want to match. For example, select equals, not equals, greater than or lesser than and so on.
    • Value – enter appropriate value for field and operator that you have selected. For example, for the account name field with operator equals you can enter account name keywords in the Value field.

Click Next.

Important Notes

  • If an account is captured in more than one list, it will only be managed by the list with the highest priority.
  • You can add up to four “Include” list and one "Exclude Only" list. You may also upload a file containing the accounts you want to manage.
3 Enter the field criteria On the Add Rule region, enter the Field Name.       

2_-_Enter_field_criteria_small.jpg

Once you enter the first letter of the name, a list of field names is populated. Select a field name. 

If you are not sure why a field is not available, check the filterable fields from the Create View or Edit View section in Accounts object of your Salesforce CRM.

Note: You cannot create a list with any text area and descriptive fields. This is a Salesforce CRM limitation. For example, you cannot create a Refresh list with the Description field. 

4 Select the Operator After entering the Field name, select the appropriate Operator.

5 Enter the field value Once you have entered Field name and selected an Operator, enter the Value for the field criteria.

Here are some examples of filters, showing the field used in Salesforce, an operator and a sample value:

    This list will retrieve all accounts that have an industry type that equals to Media.

  • Select the CreatedDate field, operator as greater than and enter the date.
