Frequently asked questions

Ceven accesses Simla segments through the Get Segments tool and can use these lists as triggers for your workflows. When a customer is added to a specific segment in Simla, the agent can detect this change and initiate downstream actions like sending a welcome email or notifying a representative. You can also build workflows that move customers between segments based on external data, such as a purchase made in a different system. This ensures your marketing and sales efforts are always targeting the right group based on the most current data available in the CRM.
Yes. You can use the Create Task action to assign work to specific users based on any logic you define in your workflow. For example, if an order exceeds a certain dollar amount, the agent can automatically create a high priority task for a senior account manager. You can also use the Edit Task action to move tasks through different stages of completion or reassign them if the original owner is unavailable. This turns Simla into a proactive engine for your team rather than just a static database of records.
Ceven allows you to both create and retrieve custom fields via the Simla API. When you use the Create Custom Field action, you define the entity it belongs to, such as an order or a customer. Once created, these fields can be populated using the Edit Customer or Edit Order actions. The agent can also read these values to make routing decisions. For instance, if you have a custom field for preferred language, the agent can use that value to select the correct email template for a customer notification.
Simla imposes specific rate limits based on your account tier, which can lead to 429 errors during massive bulk imports. Ceven handles this by implementing an exponential backoff strategy. If the agent hits a rate limit while updating thousands of customer records, it will pause and retry the request at increasing intervals to ensure no data is lost. However, for extremely large datasets, we recommend scheduling these workflows during off peak hours to avoid hitting the ceiling and causing delays in your real time automation flows.
Absolutely. Ceven acts as the bridge between your storefront and Simla. When a new order is placed on your site, the agent can call Create Order in Simla and simultaneously call Get Customer to see if the user already exists. If they do not, the agent creates the customer profile first. This creates a seamless loop where your sales data and customer profiles are always in sync without requiring manual exports or expensive custom middleware. You can map any storefront field to a Simla custom field.
The Get Customers action supports several optional filters including email and custom field values. When you prompt the agent to find a specific group, it constructs a query using these parameters to ensure it only retrieves the relevant records. This is much more efficient than pulling a full list and filtering locally. For example, you can ask the agent to find all customers who have a specific value in a custom field and then perform a bulk update on those specific records in one workflow run.
Yes. By using the Get Sites tool, the agent can identify all configured sites within your Simla account. This is critical for businesses running multiple brands or regional stores under one CRM. You can build workflows that apply different logic based on which site the order originated from. For example, an order from the UK site might trigger a task for the European support team, while an order from the US site goes to the North American team, all while maintaining a single unified customer record.
Yes. You can create a cleanup workflow that uses Get Customers with a date filter to find inactive profiles. The agent can then evaluate these profiles against your business rules and use the Edit Customer action to mark them as inactive or move them to a specific archive segment. This helps keep your CRM lean and ensures that your team is not wasting time on outdated leads. You can also run these as recurring monthly jobs to maintain data hygiene automatically.
