With Business App, you can automatically log emails sent from outside to the CRM through the BCC address and forwarding address.
Emails that are logged to the Business App CRM will include the email subject and contents with a max length of 4000 characters. The logged email will automatically be associated with the recipient's contact record and its associated primary company record.

Your email must meet the following criteria in order to be logged in the CRM:
The email address from which you are sending the email must be a user in the platform

Through Business App, you can use a forwarding address to log an email reply or any incoming emails from your clients. Before getting started, you will need to make sure your email client supports auto-forwarding. If your email client does not support auto-forwarding, you can forward the emails manually to have them captured in the Business App CRM.

Privacy and Security note:
Privacy and Security note:
As part of setting up an auto-forwarding rule, it's important to know that Business App will receive a copy of all emails you receive, however, we want to reassure you that our automated system is designed with your privacy in mind. The system discards any emails that do not include at least one contact’s email address, ensuring only relevant communications are logged.
Furthermore, we can verify that the implementation does not retain a copy of those email bodies in our logs or audit tables. This measure is crucial to prevent any sensitive information, such as medical details sent through a work email, from being stored in our database. Our priority is to respect your privacy and security, ensuring that the Business App CRM remains a safe and reliable tool for managing your client interactions.
