Automating Status based on Call Outcome with API

Hi all, 

 

I am having some issues trying to automate the “status” field based on the value selected for “call outcome”. Our organization wants to have a 1:1 relationship between the two fields, so “call outcome” and "status" will always be the same. 

 

My confusion comes from the fact that “call outcome” isn't a lead field, but a communication channel field. Any help on how this would work is much appreciated. Thank you so much.

Hi Nicholas! 

 

Could you share some more information about which status field you're referencing? I'm also interested in the way that you're trying to automate this process, so that I can understand the issues you're running into. Please share as many details as possible!

The Status field for a lead. So after a call is made through zendesk, our inside sales team chooses a “call outcome”. Call outcome matches status 1:1, so I want the value thats chosen for “call outcome” to trigger a change in the lead “status”. Hopefully that makes sense
