✅ If a tag is added to a contact on NationBuilder, it will be reflected on Qomon.
❌ If a tag is modified, (ex. changing a "Ecology Support" tag to "EcoSupport") it will not be synced. We recommend deleting the original tag and creating a new one on Qomon if you'd for it to be synced with NationBuilder and vice versa.
Important to know: NationBuilder to Qomon modifications and synchronizations are not processed in bulk. This means that if you're modifying hundreds of contacts within one minute on NationBuilder, none of those changes will be reflected on Qomon. We recommend mass modifying on Qomon so that the changes are reflected on NationBuilder.
2. Surveys
To set up survey questions to be synced to NationBuilder:
Forms > Survey > Enable NationBuilder Sync on questions you'd like synced over
The data you collect during a canvassing session with the Qomon app will be synced with your NationBuilder account.
As your volunteers carry out surveys on the street with the Qomon app, answers given by supporters will be added to their NationBuilder profile as tags, along with a “Qomon” tag.
3. Level of support
The main purpose of assigning Level of Support to contacts is to allow you to create and target actions in accordance to support levels.
Head over to Settings > Contacts/CRM > Level of Support
When enabling the NationBuilder sync for your Qomon levels of support, you'll then need to match the Qomon levels of support with their NationBuilder equivalent at the bottom right-hand side of each support with the drop down menu.
