In this article, we’ll delve into the integration of two significant business tools, BoldDesk and Firmao, made possible through Zapier. [Integrating BoldDesk with Zapier](https://www.bolddesk.com/blogs/integrating-bolddesk-with-zapier) helps businesses automate workflows across multiple applications, improving collaboration, efficiency, and data synchronization. ## What is BoldDesk? [BoldDesk](https://www.bolddesk.com/) is customer service software that helps businesses handle support operations by converting support emails into tickets, automating repetitive tasks, and streamlining the workflow. Its automated help desk ticketing tools enable the management of customer service tasks through an online, centralized platform, helping businesses achieve their [customer service objectives](https://www.bolddesk.com/blogs/customer-service-objectives) more effectively. Businesses can also use BoldDesk’s [contact management](https://www.bolddesk.com/contact-management) capabilities to organize customer information and interactions within their support environment. ## What is Firmao? [Firmao](https://firmao.net/) is online CRM software designed to monitor and oversee customer-related information. By establishing a customer database, it streamlines the customer acquisition process, enhances conversion rates throughout the sales journey, and enables effective and thorough service for customers. Firmao plays a crucial role in managing sales departments and functions. ## Why Integrate BoldDesk with Firmao? Integration between BoldDesk and Firmao, facilitated by Zapier, establishes a bridge between these two platforms, letting them communicate and share information seamlessly. This means that data generated or modified in one application can be automatically transferred to the other, eliminating the need for manual input and reducing the risk of errors. By leveraging [automation](https://www.bolddesk.com/help-desk-automation), businesses can eliminate repetitive tasks, reduce manual data entry, and keep customer information synchronized across both platforms. ## How to set up the BoldDesk–Firmao integration using Zapier Zapier connects BoldDesk and Firmao, enabling data to move automatically between customer support and CRM workflows. When an event occurs in BoldDesk, such as the creation of a new ticket, Zapier can trigger an action in Firmao, such as creating a customer record, task, or sales opportunity. Follow the steps below to set up the integration and automate your workflows. ### Step 1: Create a Zap The first step is to create a Zap, which is Zapier’s term for an automated workflow that connects two or more applications. ![Integrating BoldDesk with Firmao via Zapier using trigger and action steps to automate support and CRM workflows.](https://www.bolddesk.com/wp-content/uploads/2024/01/zapier-trigger-1-scaled.webp) 1. Log in to your Zapier account. 2. From the Zapier dashboard, click **Create Zap**. 3. Search for and select **BoldDesk** as the trigger application. 4. Choose the event that will start the automation. Depending on your workflow requirements, you can select triggers such as: - Create Ticket - Update Ticket - Create Contact - Create Ticket Reply 5. Click **Continue** to proceed to the next step. For example, if you want every new support request to create a record in Firmao, select **Create Ticket** as the trigger event. ### Step 2: Connect Your BoldDesk Account After choosing a trigger, you’ll need to connect your BoldDesk account to Zapier. 1. Click **Sign in to BoldDesk**. 2. Enter the required authentication details and authorize Zapier to access your BoldDesk account. 3. Select the appropriate BoldDesk portal if you manage multiple portals. 4. Once connected, click **Test Trigger**. Zapier will retrieve sample data from BoldDesk to verify that the connection is working correctly. Successful testing ensures that customer and ticket information can be used in the next steps of the workflow. ### Step 3: Select Firmao as the Action App Once the trigger is configured, you can define what should happen in Firmao whenever the selected BoldDesk event occurs. 1. Search for and select **Firmao** as the action application. 2. Choose the action you want Zapier to perform automatically. 3. Common actions include: - **Create Customer** – Creates a new customer record in Firmao. - **Create Task** – Generates a task for a sales or support representative. - **Create Sales Opportunity** – Creates a new opportunity in the sales pipeline. - **Update Customer Information** – Updates existing customer records with new information from BoldDesk. 4. Connect your Firmao account and authorize access. At this stage, Zapier establishes the connection between the support activity occurring in BoldDesk and the CRM action performed in Firmao. ### Step 4: Map Data Between BoldDesk and Firmao Field mapping determines how information is transferred between both systems. Zapier will display fields from BoldDesk and allow you to match them with corresponding fields in Firmao. This ensures that customer and ticket information appears in the correct location within your CRM. Example field mappings include: | **BoldDesk Field** | **Firmao Field** | | --- | --- | | Contact Name | Customer Name | | Contact Email | Customer Email | | Ticket Subject | Opportunity Name | | Ticket Priority | Opportunity Priority | | Ticket Description | Notes | | Company Name | Customer Company | Carefully review each field and ensure the data is being mapped correctly. Proper field mapping helps prevent duplicate records and ensures accurate customer information. ### Step 5: Test and Enable the Zap Before activating the workflow, perform a final test. 1. Click **Test Action** to send sample data from BoldDesk to Firmao. 2. Review the record created in Firmao and confirm that all information has been transferred accurately. 3. Verify that customer details, ticket information, and any associated notes appear in the correct fields. 4. Once everything looks correct, click Publish or Turn On Zap. The automation is now active and will run automatically whenever the selected trigger occurs in BoldDesk. #### **Real-life examples of using BoldDesk and Firmao together** A B2B software company uses **Firmao** to manage customer accounts and sales opportunities, while the support team handles customer issues in **BoldDesk**. When a customer submits a high-priority support ticket in BoldDesk, Zapier automatically creates a follow-up task in Firmao for the account manager. The sales team is immediately notified of the issue and can proactively reach out to the customer, preventing miscommunication and improving customer retention. **Result:** Sales and support teams stay aligned, respond faster to customer concerns, and deliver a more consistent customer experience. ## Available triggers and actions for BoldDesk and Firmao The BoldDesk–Firmao integration supports several triggers and actions that help automate customer support and CRM workflows, enabling businesses to deliver more efficient [automated customer service](https://www.bolddesk.com/learn/automated-customer-service) experiences.
