Introduction
Thank you for considering the integration of your Church Community Builder (CCB) & PushPay ChMS with our Prayer Platform™. This integration provides a smooth and simple authorization experience for your existing CCB users, as well as adding all new prayer wall users into your CCB database and synchronizing the information automatically between the two systems.
This guide is designed to provide clarity on how the integration works, how the data will be synchronized between our Prayer Platform™ and your CCB ChMS, and what the flow will be for new users and existing users.
Authorization Process
The integration allows existing users to be authorized quickly in just three simple steps, and for new users to be added to your CCB ChMS immediately.
Step 1: Before we start working on the integration, we will ask you to complete a simple form by answering a few questions and providing us with the API URL, API User and API Password.
Step 2: After you submit the form, we will start setting up the integration. We will first match the user profile contact card in our CRM (with exactly the same fields as you have in CCB now) and then map all the fields to ensure that all the users' information will be synchronized between your CCB and our Prayer Platform™. At any time later on, you will be able to make any changes and edits to those settings.
Step 3: Here is an explanation of how the information will be synchronized between the two systems in the cases of a) new users signing up for the prayer wall and that were never added in your CCB ChMS before, and b) new prayer wall users that are existing CCB users.
Synchronization of information between the systems
The information between the Prayer Platform™ and CCB ChMS will be synchronized automatically for new and existing users. Here's how it will work:
New Users:
If the new users that were never a part of your CCB database but came up as a part of our new user growth campaign or any other ways via prayer wall, they will have the ability to create their prayer request or praise report. After they write their post
and click Submit
we will ask them to enter their email address
After they enter their email address, we send them a verification code via email asking them to enter a 4-digit code. This ensures that you will not be getting any spam bots or unknown/fake users.
After entering the four-digit code, new users will be asked to add their profile information as well as your new user registration fields.
After that, they will see a confirmation message that tells them that their account has been created and their post is based on your moderation settings is either waiting for approval by your team (in case of manual moderation) or is live and visible for all other users (in case of automatic moderation).
The new user's profile will be added in your CCB database immediately.
After user is authorized the first time, they won’t need to enter their login information, as their session will be stored, and they will be authorized unless they log out manually or try using the prayer wall from another device. This way, the login/authorization process will be super simple as they’ll just need to enter their email and enter the 4-digit code!
Existing Users:
For users that already have an account in your CCB when entering the first time, they’ll be asked to enter their email address.
While receiving authorization email and entering the 4 digits
the integration will check and get that user's information from your CCB and will pre-fill their information and ask the user to confirm their information and complete the initial registration with the prayer platform.
After user is authorized the first time, they won’t need to enter their login information, as their session will be stored, and they will be authorized unless they log out manually or try using the prayer wall from another device. This way, the login/authorization process will be super simple as they’ll just need to enter their email and enter the 4-digit code!
