Accelo

Overview

This node allows you to create a new Company in Accelo via its API. It is useful for automating the process of adding company records from other systems, forms, or workflows directly into your Accelo account. Common scenarios include syncing CRM data, onboarding new clients, or integrating with lead capture tools.

Practical examples:

• Automatically add a new company when a deal is closed in another CRM.
• Create companies in Accelo from form submissions on your website.
• Batch import company data from spreadsheets or other sources.
