Prerequisites
Your Customer Success Manager will discuss the different options available to you for bringing in data from Recurly during the kick-off call.
Finalize Account and User Identifiers
CustomerSuccessBox requires a unique identifier for Account and User records that should be immutable. The source of truth for the identifiers can be your tenant/instance, Recurly or any third-party system.

Action |
---|---|---|
Tenant/Instance |

Recurly |

Finalize Mapping Details
Once you have finalized the source of truth for unique Account and User identifiers, share the object_name and field_name where the unique identifier is available and/or set in Recurly with your Customer Success Manager or fill the details in the onboarding document shared with you.
Creating Accounts and Subscriptions
You can choose Recurly as the source of truth for the creating and updating Accounts and Subscriptions data in CustomerSuccessBox, if you prefer. Account and Subscription attributes can be updated on an ongoing basis - either manually, via APIs, or the data can be pulled from Recurly. You can choose one of the two options available below
- Daily Sync: Overrides any manual changes done in CustomerSuccessBox
- Import Only: One time import of new and existing Account and Subscription data from Recurly. Attributes can be updated either manually or pushed via APIs
