Using Close CRM in Workflows

For advanced use cases, you can add Close CRM as a destination in your workflows. This allows you to:

  • Only sync leads after AI qualification (filter out low-quality leads)
  • Enrich leads with Clay data before syncing to Close
  • Add different tags or statuses based on form responses
  • Send to Close only when certain conditions are met

Pro tip: Use the workflow builder to create a filter that only sends high-value leads to Close CRM, routing others to a spreadsheet for follow-up.

Troubleshooting

Leads not appearing in Close?

Check that the integration is connected and active in your Integrations page. Verify the form has the Close integration enabled in its settings.

Duplicate leads being created?

Change the duplicate behavior setting to "Update" to merge new data into existing leads instead of creating duplicates.

Connection was disconnected?

Your Close API access may have been revoked. Reconnect from the Integrations page to restore access.

Notes not showing on timeline?

Make sure the "Create Activity Notes" option is enabled in the integration settings.
