Synchronize Single Object

A pipeline batch is used to run a synchronization task asynchronously. This is because pipeline batches are designed to synchronize multiple records at once.

However, it is possible to use Dynamics CRM Connect to synchronize a specific entity, and to do it synchronously.

This section describes how to trigger the synchronization of data from a contact in xDB to a contact in CRM. This could be used, for example, to automatically update CRM when a visitor’s session ends on the website.

Note

While this section covers a specific scenario, the same logic can be used to synchronize any data.

Steps

• 1. Determine the Appropriate Pipeline
• 2. Determine the Required Context Values
• 3. Run the Pipeline
