Integrate with SmartHub
DreamApply integrates with SmartHub by Keystone Education Group, allowing you to import lead data from the platform.
During the import process, DreamApply pulls the following data:
- First name
- Last name
- Email address
- Phone number and other available fields
You can map each lead field to the corresponding fields in the applicant records in DreamApply.
To import lead data to DreamApply, perform the following tasks:
Before you begin
