Hi Scott!

I was wondering if you could provide a high level overview on how to create a CTA for beginners, and general best practices? Thank you!!

Hi Scott, 

I’m unable to determine what is causing a S3 Import triggered rule to fail with this message: 

2022-03-07T22-16-44_UTC - Task name: S3 Import, Start time: 2022-03-07T22-16-44_UTC, End time: 2022-03-07T22-16-44_UTC, Message: java.io.IOException: (line 79) invalid char between encapsulated token and delimiter, Records: -1

I ended up deleting line 79 after seeing what appeared to be the encapsulated token and couldn’t determine exactly what part of the cell was causing the delimiter to become invalid.

Hi Scott,

Problem we are trying to solve: Report on the Number of accounts that our CSM met in the last 90 days vs their book of business by product type (Sounds easy😊 )

Special consideration and workflows -

  1. After entering timeline CSM tags the contact with the product type using a custom multiselect dropdown list in person tab under c360
  2. We do not have an asset list in our salesforce, for every product we have an active checkbox

 

What I have done so far:

  • I’m using activity attendee object to get the list of contacts that the CSM met in last 90 days
  • I’m using Person field to get the product list (custom multiselect field, which is flattened by a rule and store it in another custom object -thanks to Shiv from GS for the suggestion)
  • Merging the above based on contact id
  • Another data set to get the book of business for CSM
  • And the final merge.
  • The report isn’t showing data that will be easily readable and it is confusing. My goal is to have CSM ID as global filter and the CSM Manager can use the active checkbox filter to drill down on the product they want to explore (I’m open to suggestions)

Hi Scott, 

Looking for a way to create a reoccuring NPS survey for multi-year deals based on Original Contract Date.  I’ve found articles on Lifecycle in Weeks but this functionality seems to have been depricated.  Any ideas on what others are doing to acheive this?

Is there a way to keep GS formatting when activities are synced from GS to SFDC?  RIght now, the way it comes through is all crammed together so anyone looking at SFDC has a hard time reading it.

Hello,

 

I am wondering if theres a way to create a report on the usage of a CSM. for example, do they log in to use the cockpit, run reports, etc?

Scott,  One additional question is whether there is a way to choose additional activity information when logging an email using Gainsight Assist.  Right now it comes over as Type: email but the stage and activity are blank.

Whoops - apologies, @Pankaj - I meant to ask if the Data Designer was getting closer to what you wanted and didn’t get a chance to - any luck so far?
