Example
Writing A Lead To the Lead Database
The following example Pipeline demonstrates how we can sync a lead to the Lead database using the Lead Write Snap.
Initially, we pass the following required lead values and account name in the Pipeline as key-value parameters.
Key
Value
MarketoAccountName
DG_Marketo_Account
FirstName
John
Gender
Male
LastName
Doe
We begin with mapping the lead information using the Mapper Snap.
Upon validation, we see the lead information in the output preview of the Snap.
Next we configure the Lead Write Snap, to insert the lead information into the folder which is in the Lead database.
Upon validation, we see a confirmation on the lead created in the Lead database.
