This guide will help you connect your Raiser's Edge event to your Fondi virtual event. When you connect a Raiser's Edge CRM event to a Fondi event, Fondi will sync over any registrations you have in Raiser's Edge CRM and keep them up to date in Fondi as RSVPs to your virtual event.
Data that is synced to Fondi includes:
Event Registrations
Getting Started
Step 1: Create your event in Raiser's Edge
Login to your Raiser's Edge account and create your event that you'd like to host to begin taking registrations. You can connect to Fondi at any point during the duration of your event.
Step 2: Sign up for Fondi and create your organization
If you haven't created an organization and event in Fondi yet, go ahead and sign up. Create the virtual event that you'll want to sync to your Blackbaud event -- you'll probably want to name your Fondi event the same as your Raiser's Edge event to make it easy to keep track of.
Step 3: Connect your Raiser's Edge organization to your Fondi organization
Next up, let's connect the Raiser's Edge & Fondi Integration. While viewing your organization, click on Integrations in the left sidebar. You'll see a list of integrations. Scroll to the Raiser's Edge integration and click "Connect".
Step 4: Map your campaigns
Now, you need to tell Fondi what Raiser's Edge events you want to map to which Fondi events. Click the "Settings" button by the Raiser's Edge integration.
Select a campaign and the corresponding event you want registrations to sync to. Then click "Add Mapping". Rinse and repeat for however many campaigns you want to map.
Voila! Your Raiser's Edge event's registrations will now sync to Fondi every 10 minutes. You can always go back into the integration settings and click "Sync Registrations" to force sync your registrations over. You can also change or remove the mapping, as desired.
Step 5: Send out your Fondi event's registration page URL to your registrants
Now that your registrations are syncing over, you can focus on the fun part of customizing your virtual event on Fondi. This includes adding your branding and configuring your agenda, speakers, sponsors, expo and other items.
When attendees arrive at your registration page, if they haven't registered yet they'll be linked to your Raiser's Edge event page to register -- or if they have registered already via Raiser's Edge, they can use the same email they registered with to access your event.
