- Review the Nimble Integration Overview to answer general questions about the integration. More information can be found in the Integration Guide.
- The Nimble integration with Higher Logic Thrive Marketing Enterprise (Thrive Marketing Enterprise) will require a Systems Administration user.
- A standard Salesforce licensed user is required for this integration and the user password is recommended to be set to do not expire. This login can be a standalone login (recommended) or pre-existing. All information related to the integration (tracking, new record creation) will be tied to this user.

Why is this individual record missing tracking information?
Ensure that individual is assigned a Person Account ID. If the individual was uploaded outside of the Real Magnet Scheduler you must ensure that it also has its Person Account ID mapped to the Custom Member ID. This is how the Nimble AMS platform identifies that individual in its database. If an individual is missing this information, no tracking information will push back for that recipient to Nimble AMS.
What happens if the tracking data portion is cancelled mid-stream?
Thrive Marketing Enterprise logs the failure and re-attempts to send the data through to Nimble AMS.
