Nimbata’s Pipedrive integration automatically sends call data to Pipedrive, so you can track leads, update deals, and keep your sales pipeline accurate. When a caller is not in Pipedrive yet, Nimbata creates the records you choose, such as a Person and a Note. When the caller already exists, it updates the fields you map. A workflow decides which calls are sent.

Before you start

Configure Pipedrive

Each setup, such as Pipedrive Settings 1, has two sections: Caller not found, what Nimbata creates when the caller is not in Pipedrive, and Caller found, what it updates when they are. To send different calls to Pipedrive in different ways, click Set up Pipedrive to add another setup; each workflow picks the setup it sends.

  1. Map your fields

    Map Nimbata fields to Pipedrive fields for two scenarios:

    • One for when the caller is not found in your CRM (Caller not found)
    • One for when they already exist (Caller found)

    Click + Add object to add each record, or Use Default Config to fill in the recommended mapping.

    Caller not found

    Choose what to create when the caller is not already in Pipedrive.

    Caller not found: a new Person with its Name and Phone, then a Note.
  2. 1Choose how existing callers are matched

    In the Caller found section, answer the two matching questions first:

    1. Which entity to enrich (1), when the Caller ID is found in more than one object: Person, Lead or All.
    2. How to handle duplicates (2), when the same Caller ID is found more than once in one object: Handle first, Handle all or Ignore all.

    Caller found

    Choose what to update when the caller already exists in Pipedrive.

    If a Caller ID is found in multiple objects, which entity should be enriched?

    PersonLeadAll
    1

    When the same Caller ID is found multiple times within the same object, how would you like our app to handle the call event?

    Handle firstHandle allIgnore all
    2
    Add objectUse Default Config
    Choose the entity to enrich (1) and how to handle duplicates (2).

Test the integration

  1. Send a test event

    Click Send Test and Save, fill in the test values, including a Caller ID, and click Send event. If the Caller ID is already in Pipedrive, Nimbata runs your Caller found actions, otherwise your Caller not found actions. Review the test event in Pipedrive.

  2. Save the setup

    Click Save. Calls start reaching Pipedrive once a workflow sends them (below).

Send calls with a workflow

Which calls are sent is decided by a workflow with a Pipedrive action: a workflow that runs when a call ends, with no filter, sends every call, and its filters (for example call outcome or tracking number) narrow it down.

  1. Create a workflow

    Go to Workflows, click Create and choose From Scratch. Keep the Inbound Call trigger with Call Ends, and add any filters you need.

  2. 1Add the Pipedrive action

    Click the + plus sign, select Perform action, and choose Pipedrive under Integrations. Pick your setup under Select configuration (1), then click OK.

    Pick the Pipedrive setup to send (1), then click OK.
  3. 1Enable the workflow

    Click Enable (1).

Detailed guide: Create a workflow

Check it worked

The Pipedrive page now shows the workflow that uses the integration. Place a test call to one of your tracking numbers: once it ends, the record appears in Pipedrive.

🎉 Done! All calls that match your workflow criteria are automatically logged in Pipedrive.

Troubleshooting

The Pipedrive tile says Disconnected

Nimbata has lost its connection to Pipedrive. Your Pipedrive settings are saved, but nothing is sent until you reconnect: open the integration and click Reconnect in the red Disconnected. banner.

Integrations

PipedriveDisconnected

A disconnected integration shows a red Disconnected badge on its tile.

Send Test and Save is greyed out

  • Connect Pipedrive first: the button stays off until the integration is connected.
  • Map at least one field under Caller not found or Caller found.
  • If the test answers “Please provide a valid caller id”, fill in the Caller ID box in the test panel.

Calls are not reaching Pipedrive

  • Check that a workflow with a Pipedrive action is enabled, and that its filters let the call through.
  • Check that the workflow’s Pipedrive action uses the setup you configured, under Select configuration.
  • Check that the Pipedrive tile does not say Disconnected.
  • Send a test from Send Test and Save to see the error Pipedrive returns.
