Frequently asked questions

Ceven connects to CentralStationCRM using a secure API key provided from your account settings. You enter this key once in the Ceven integration panel and we store it using AES 256 encryption at rest. The agent uses this key to authenticate every request to the API. We never share this key with third party services or other users. If you suspect your key has been compromised, you can rotate the key in your CentralStationCRM dashboard and update it in the Ceven settings to immediately restore a secure connection. Access is limited to the permissions associated with the user who generated the API key.
Yes. Ceven can run a periodic workflow that uses the search people tool to identify contacts with matching email addresses or phone numbers. Once the agent identifies potential duplicates, it can either flag them for your review or use the merge person tool to consolidate them into a single golden record. This process ensures that your communication history and deal associations are not split across multiple entries. You can define the strictness of the matching logic, such as requiring an exact email match or allowing for fuzzy name matching based on your specific business needs.
Ceven has full support for custom fields. The agent can use the get person custom fields tool to discover which unique data points you have added to your CRM. Once identified, Ceven can read these values to trigger specific workflows or update them based on information found in your emails or other SaaS tools. For example, if you have a custom field for preferred contact method, the agent can read that field before deciding whether to send an email or a text message through your integrated communication channels.
CentralStationCRM imposes specific rate limits on their API to ensure system stability. Depending on your plan, there is a cap on the number of requests per minute. If Ceven hits these limits during a large backfill or a massive update, the agent automatically implements an exponential backoff strategy. This means the agent pauses for a few seconds before retrying the request to avoid a permanent block. You may notice a slight slowdown in processing during very large bulk imports, but the agent ensures every single record is eventually processed without data loss.
Yes. By using the create person historic event tool, Ceven can log significant dates for your contacts. You can set up a workflow that scans your incoming emails for phrases like my birthday is or our anniversary is and automatically pushes that date into CentralStationCRM. The agent can then monitor these dates daily and send you a reminder or draft a congratulatory email to the client a few days before the event occurs, allowing you to maintain a personal touch at scale.
Ceven treats deals as the primary object for revenue tracking. When a lead expresses interest, the agent creates a deal and links it to the corresponding person and company. As the conversation progresses in your email or Slack, the agent can update the deal status based on keywords or specific milestones. For example, when a client says the proposal looks good, the agent can move the deal to the negotiation stage and create a task for you to send the final contract, keeping your pipeline accurate in real time.
Ceven can facilitate migrations by acting as the bridge between your old system and CentralStationCRM. You can export your old data to a CSV or connect another CRM integration. The agent then iterates through each record, using the create company and create person tools to rebuild your database. It can also map old custom fields to new ones and ensure that the relationships between people and companies are preserved. Because it uses the official API, all data is validated against the CRM rules before it is committed.
Yes. CentralStationCRM allows for the creation of assistant records, and Ceven can manage these via the create person assistant tool. If you find out a client has a gatekeeper or an executive assistant, the agent can create a separate assistant entry linked to the primary contact. This allows you to track who the actual point of contact is for scheduling versus who the decision maker is. The agent can maintain separate contact details for both, ensuring you always reach the right person for the right reason.
