Frequently asked questions

Ceven implements an intelligent queuing system that respects the specific rate limits imposed by Pipeline CRM. If a workflow triggers a high volume of requests, such as a bulk company update, the agent automatically throttles the outgoing calls to prevent 429 errors. We use an exponential backoff strategy, meaning if the API tells us to slow down, the agent waits for a short period before retrying the request. This ensures that your CRM remains stable and your data synchronization continues in the background without failing. You will see a status indicator in the workflow log if a large batch is being processed slowly to stay within the API limits.
Yes. You can set up a workflow where the agent monitors an external trigger, such as a signed contract in DocuSign or a payment in Stripe, and then uses the Update Deal action to move the opportunity to the next stage in Pipeline CRM. The agent first calls List Deal Stages to find the correct ID for the target stage and then executes the update. This eliminates the need for sales reps to manually drag deals across the board, ensuring that your pipeline reporting is always accurate and based on real time events rather than manual updates that often happen days late.
Ceven can read and write to custom fields through the generic update and get company actions. When you configure your workflow, you simply provide the API key for the custom field as defined in your Pipeline CRM settings. The agent treats these as standard metadata, allowing you to pull industry specific data points into your automation. For example, if you have a custom field for property square footage, the agent can pull that value and use it to personalize an email draft or route the deal to a specific specialist based on the size of the asset.
The agent uses the calendar task tools to act as a virtual assistant for your sales team. You can create a workflow that says whenever a new lead is added to Pipeline CRM, create a task to call them in twenty four hours. The agent calculates the date and time, assigns it to the lead owner, and links it directly to the lead record. It can also list tasks for the day and send a summary to a Slack channel, ensuring that no follow up is missed. This keeps the team focused on selling rather than managing a to do list.
If a company is deleted, any subsequent attempts by Ceven to update or retrieve that company by ID will return a not found error. You can build error handling into your workflow to manage this. For instance, if the agent fails to find a company during a sync, it can trigger a notification to the admin or create a log entry in your data warehouse. This prevents the workflow from crashing and allows you to maintain a clean audit trail of why certain records are no longer being synchronized between your CRM and other business tools.
Ceven operates using the permissions granted to the API key provided during the connection process. If the API key is restricted to a specific user role in Pipeline CRM, the agent can only perform actions that the user is authorized to do. For example, if the user does not have permission to delete deals, any attempt by a Ceven workflow to call the Delete Deal action will result in a permission denied error from the API. We recommend using a dedicated integration user with the necessary administrative privileges to ensure all workflow actions execute without interruption.
While Pipeline CRM has its own import tools, Ceven can automate the creation of leads and companies from external sources in real time. Instead of a bulk CSV import, you can set up a workflow that triggers every time a new lead enters your marketing funnel. The agent will then create the company and the deal sequentially. One quirk to note is that the API requires a company to exist before a deal can be linked to it. Ceven handles this by first calling Create Company, capturing the returned ID, and then passing that ID into the Create Deal call.
Ceven can track velocity by periodically pulling deal state and logging the timestamps of stage changes into an external database or spreadsheet. By calling List Deal Stages and Get Deal, the agent can compare the current stage with the previous state recorded in your logs. It can then calculate the average time a deal spends in each phase. If a deal stays in the discovery stage for longer than your defined threshold, the agent can automatically create a high priority task for the manager to review the account and provide assistance to the rep.
