Configure CRM Enrichment

Before you enrich any records, you need to map Apollo's default fields with your CRM fields to ensure full enrichment functionality.

 
Permission to Map

Please note, you can only map default fields if you have permission to edit integration-related settings. If you do not have access but want to configure default mapping, please contact an admin user from your team to enable the correct permissions for your account. For more information about permission profiles, please refer to the Create Permission Profiles article.

To do so, launch Apollo and navigate to Enrich. Then, click View Records in the CRM Enrichment menu.

Enrich

Click Settings and then click Contact Fields or Account Fields.

Settings Tab on Enrichment Page

Select the drop-down arrow next to the CRM field that you want to map to an Apollo default field. Then, select the appropriate field from the list.

Being Mindful Matters!

Please note, Apollo applies any changes you make at the instance level. This means that the fields you select here also impact the other users in your team.

If you want to automate the enrichment process for specific fields, click the Autofill or Auto Overwrite checkboxes on the right of a default field. You can either choose to activate the Autofill option on its own or you can activate both Autofill and Auto Overwrite together.

Autofill and Auto Overwrite Checkboxes

 
Don't Fix What Isn't Broken

Please note, Apollo can only auto-overwrite a default field if Apollo has information available that differs from the data in your CRM. Likewise, Apollo can only autofill a default field that is empty in your CRM if Apollo has relevant information available. Please also note that these settings only run whenever Apollo pulls an update from your CRM.

Repeat the process for all default account and contact fields that you want to map with your CRM. Then, click Submit.

Submit Button

You are now ready to enrich your CRM records.
