Pipedrive actions
This page describes all Pipedrive actions which are added to your Ortto account after integrating Ortto with Pipedrive when configuring Pipedrive as a new data source.
These actions are available in Ortto’s journey and playbook campaigns, and allow you to update object records in Pipedrive service itself, as well as fields in your Ortto account’s CDP.
