ActBlue

A how-to guide for syncing your ActBlue account and donation forms

What can I do with the ActBlue Integration?

Sync all of your ActBlue forms to build Strive automations while growing your Members list.

Can I automate messages when a donor signs an ActBlue form?

Yes, you can build automations for new, existing, or all members who sign your ActBlue form via Integration Automations. Trigger thank you's and welcome flows when a supporter signs your donation form.

Will new supporters be added to Strive?

Yes! Upon signing an ActBlue form a new member record will be created in Strive. Strive will only import members into your Members list who have opted-in to receive SMS.

ActBlue forms must contain:

-A
mobile phone field
-An
SMS Consent check box

Can I sync past donors into Strive?

You can! When setting up your new webhook request in ActBlue make sure you apply the desired backfill date.

Can I choose which forms I sync?

Upon setting up your integration, Strive will sync with all forms in your ActBlue account. At this time we cannot sync with select forms.

What fields can I import from ActBlue into Strive?

Strive will import available data for the following fields into your Members list:

  • Phone number
  • Opt-in status
  • First Name
  • Last Name
  • Zip code

How does supporter/member data sync between ActBlue and Strive?

Strive will not overwrite any existing supporter data in your ActBlue account. Strive will populate empty fields for supporters in ActBlue with new data from Strive when an ActBlue form is submitted.

Strive does not send data back to the ActBlue, due to limitations with their API.

Can I import custom field data?

Yes you can import the following fields from ActBlue as custom fields in Strive:

  • Highest Donation Amount
  • Last Donation Date

Note: Make sure to create these custom fields in your Members list before you set up your ActBlue integration. This data will automatically import upon syncing your ActBlue account.
