Connect DonorPerfect and SendGrid
When New donor fires in DonorPerfect, your agent runs Create or update contact in SendGrid, or New bounce in SendGrid to Add contact in DonorPerfect. Describe the whole flow and it is built, tested on every scenario and kept running.

Setup guide (opens in a new tab)DonorPerfect holds your donor and gift records, and SendGrid sends the mail. Joining them means a gift logged in DonorPerfect can trigger a receipt from SendGrid, new donors land on the right marketing list, and bounces or unsubscribes in SendGrid get written back onto the donor record so your mailings stay accurate.

Questions
DonorPerfect and SendGrid, answered
Can a thank-you email go out using the donor's own details?
Yes. The new gift trigger in DonorPerfect can be followed by Get donor, so the gift amount and donor fields are available to pass into a SendGrid dynamic template with Send an email using template.
What happens when someone unsubscribes or bounces in SendGrid?
SendGrid's new global suppression and new bounce triggers can update the matching donor in DonorPerfect, either with Update donor or by adding a contact record. That keeps the mailing status visible to staff working in DonorPerfect.
What can start an automation from DonorPerfect?
Any of DonorPerfect's 6 triggers in the catalog, including New donor, New gift, New or updated donor and New or updated gift. Describe the moment in plain language and your agent picks the right one.
What can your agent do in SendGrid when something happens in DonorPerfect?
Any of SendGrid's 10 actions, including Add to suppression group, Create or update contact, Create custom field and Create list. Your agent maps the data both ways and tests every scenario before it ships.
Can it also run from SendGrid to DonorPerfect?
Yes. When something happens in SendGrid, your agent can act in DonorPerfect too. This page covers both directions: SendGrid's triggers and DonorPerfect's actions are listed here as well.
Do I have to build a connector for DonorPerfect or SendGrid?
No. Both are in the catalog with their triggers and actions. You describe the automation; your agent builds it, tests every scenario and keeps it running.
Can my AI client use DonorPerfect and SendGrid without building an automation?
Yes. With your AI client connected to APIANT, ask it to do something in either app once and it runs that action on the spot. Ask for an automation and your agent builds it, tests every scenario and keeps it running. One connection covers both.
What happens when something fails?
Your agent works that out for you. It plans the failure paths along with the happy path, then tests every scenario before it ships.
Is there a free plan?
Yes. Every plan includes the agent, including free, and building from your own AI client spends no assistant credits.
