Conflict Resolution: Prioritizes Whova’s attendee status when duplicates exist

Visual Workflow Builder

1. Pre-built Templates: “Event Email Campaign” template maps:

- SparkPost click events → Whova session check-ins

- SparkPost bounces → Whova attendee status = “Invalid Email”

2. Drag-and-Drop Logic: Add conditions like:

- “Only sync emails tagged #Event2024 in SparkPost”

3. Multi-Step Chatbots: Sequence example:

- Trigger: Email opened → Action: Send Whova push notification

Enterprise Features

SOC 2-compliant encryption for all data transfers

Performance throttling to avoid Whova API rate limits

Team collaboration with role-based access controls

4. Step-by-Step Integration Guide: Connect SparkPost to Whova in Minutes

Step 1: Platform Setup and Authentication

1. Conferbot Account: Sign up → Navigate to “Integrations”

2. SparkPost Connection:

- Enter API key (Admin → API Keys in SparkPost)

- Test connection with /api/v1/account endpoint

3. Whova Connection:

- Use OAuth 2.0 or API key (Developer Portal)

- Validate with /attendees endpoint

Step 2: Data Mapping and Transformation

1. Auto-Mapping: Conferbot suggests:

- SparkPost `recipient` → Whova `email`

- SparkPost `timestamp` → Whova `last_contact_date`

2. Custom Rules:

- Transform SparkPost’s `delivery_status` to Whova’s `status` codes

- Filter: Only sync `event_id=XYZ` campaigns

Step 3: Workflow Configuration

Trigger: “New email open in SparkPost”

Actions:

1. Update Whova attendee `engagement_score +10`

2. Send Whova in-app message: “You unlocked session materials”

Step 4: Deployment

Test Mode: Validate with 5 sample records

Go Live: Enable “Real-Time Sync”

Monitor: Dashboard tracks sync success rate (99.99% SLA)

5. Advanced Integration Scenarios

Bi-directional Sync Automation

Use Case: Whova attendee unregisters → SparkPost suppression list update

Conflict Rules: “Whova data overrides SparkPost for attendee status”

Multi-Platform Workflows

Example: SparkPost → Whova → Zoom

1. Email opened → Whova check-in → Zoom webinar invite

Custom Business Logic

Condition: If SparkPost open rate <20%, trigger Whova SMS reminder

Data Enrichment: Merge SparkPost geo-data with Whova attendee profiles

Time Savings:

8 hours/week saved on manual attendee list updates

50% faster email campaign deployment

Cost Reduction:
