Connect lead sources, Zapier, and external CRM
Parse lead emails, connect Zapier, and log SAMI activity to Lofty from the Integrations tab.
The Integrations tab connects the lead sources and automation tools that feed activity into SAMI OS. Open the Integrations tab in Settings and pick a card: email parsing, Zapier and API keys, or external CRM logging.
Email new leads into SAMI OS
Many lead portals send you a notification email for each new inquiry. Create a parser source for each format, and SAMI OS gives you a dedicated address. Forward matching emails to it, and new contacts are created from the email content.
Open the email panel
On the Integrations tab, choose Email new leads to SAMI OS, then select Add source.
Name the source
Enter the lead source name — for example, Zillow, Realtor.com, or Website form. This exact value is written to the contact's lead source when emails arrive, so name one source per format.
Choose a scope
Pick Personal or Organization. Personal leads are assigned to you and skip lead routing. Organization leads are unassigned and go through lead routing — only admins and owners can create org-scoped sources.
Create and copy the address
Select Create source. SAMI OS generates a parser address and shows it in a success banner. Use Copy to grab it, then add it as a forwarding destination in your portal or mailbox.
The source name becomes the contact's lead source, so reporting and Workflows can act on it. Keep names consistent and create a separate source for every email format you forward.
Each source lists its address, scope, and status. Use Copy to grab the address again, Disable to pause parsing without losing the source, Enable to turn it back on, and Delete to remove it for good.
Connect Zapier and API keys
The Zapier/API Keys card connects SAMI OS to thousands of apps through Zapier. Accept the private app invite first, then create a key for the connection.
Accept the Zapier invite
Open the Zapier/API Keys card and select Open the SAMI OS Zapier invite. This opens the private SAMI OS app in Zapier in a new tab.
Create an API key
Back on the card, create an API key for the Zapier connection. Copy it when shown — it's only displayed once.
Paste it into Zapier
When Zapier asks to connect SAMI OS, paste the key to authenticate. For direct integrations, the API docs link covers the endpoints.
Set up Lofty external CRM logging
External CRM logging mirrors selected SAMI OS activity back into a connected CRM record. SAMI OS supports Lofty.
Select Lofty
On the SAMI external CRM logging card, choose Lofty. The tile shows whether it's connected.
Save your API key
Paste your Lofty API key and select Save key. The card then shows the last four digits of the connected key.
Pick what gets logged
Toggle each activity SAMI OS writes back to Lofty: calls, SMS messages, notes, and tags. Turn on Assign Lofty lead to answering agent after answered transfer so a transferred-and-answered call reassigns the lead.
Changes save as you toggle each switch. To stop logging entirely, select Disconnect to remove the saved key while keeping your toggle preferences for next time.
