Microsoft Dynamics Quick Reference for Intelligent Workflows

Prev Next

6sense integration with Microsoft Dynamics gives you powerful orchestration features using Intelligent Workflows. This page covers the basics for new users.

Integrate 6sense and AI Email with Microsoft Dynamics

To use workflows with Microsoft Dynamics, the integration must already exist. The user who sets this up must have permissions on the relevant objects in Microsoft Dynamics. Refer to Integrate 6sense with Microsoft Dynamics 365.

If you plan to use a Microsoft Dynamics contact list with AI Email to periodically import and enroll new contacts in an AI Email campaign, there are more integration steps. Refer to Integrate AI Email with MS Dynamics.

Add to a Dynamics campaign over a set period of time, then remove them from the workflow.

Create accounts from 6sense in your Microsoft Dynamics and add them to a Dynamics campaign.

Purchase contacts from 6sense and save the contacts to Microsoft Dynamics.

Decision node condition filters for Microsoft Dynamics

When Microsoft Dynamics is integrated with 6sense, you can use its fields in filters for decision nodes.

Action nodes that support Microsoft Dynamics

AWF and DWF Create Accounts in CRM node

The Create Accounts in CRM node, available in both AWF and DWF, creates accounts in Microsoft Dynamics from accounts in 6sense.

Account identification and duplication rules

6sense identifies accounts by name, country and domain. This means that 6sense considers “XYZCorp, USA” and “XYZCorp, Canada” to be separate accounts. Therefore, if you have one name/country/domain in your CRM, and the new account from 6sense uses another, 6sense creates the other. However, you may want to treat both of these accounts as the same account in your CRM; in which case you can set custom duplicate prevention rules in 6sense so that 6sense does not create a new account if you want to use the existing account. To set up duplication prevention rules, see Custom Match Rules.

Create Accounts dependencies for Microsoft Dynamics

Create Accounts properties for Microsoft Dynamics

Most Create Accounts in Dynamics node are the same as other Create Accounts in [CRM] nodes. Dynamics-specific properties include:

  • Make sure you select a Mapping profile for your Microsoft Dynamics system.

    • You can override which fields to enrich when creating an account for this node only.

  • For Advanced Options, you can set the batch size per API call. By default, it is 1000 for MS Dynamics. Reducing the batch size may inversely affect the number of API calls. For example, decreasing the batch size from 200 to 50 results in 4x more API calls. The smaller the batch size, the longer the processing times. Changes to this setting take effect the next time the action node runs.

AWF Push to Dynamics Campaign node

The Push to Dynamics Campaign people-level action node pushes contacts or leads from a segment to a Microsoft Dynamics campaign.
