Both integrations follow the same shape: you get a credential from the other product, paste it into the card on Integrations, fill in anything else that integration needs, and save. Nothing is sent anywhere until you save, and you can change your mind at any point with Cancel.
Follow Up Boss
Connecting Follow Up Boss pushes every lead who replies to your campaigns straight into your CRM, so you are working one list instead of two.
Get your API key
Sign in to Follow Up Boss.
Go to Admin → API.
Create a new API key and copy it.
Create a key specifically for Grassfed rather than reusing one — that way, if you ever want to cut Grassfed off at the source, you can delete that one key without disturbing anything else you have connected.
Connect it
In the portal, open Integrations (on a phone: More → Integrations).
On the Follow Up Boss card, click Connect.
Paste your key into API key.
Click Connect Follow Up Boss.
The card confirms "Follow Up Boss is connected.", the badge turns to Connected, and the key is replaced by its last four characters. That is all Follow Up Boss needs — there is nothing else to configure.
Smartsheet
Smartsheet mirrors your replies into a sheet, one row per reply. It needs three things: a token, the sheet to write to, and which column each piece of a reply belongs in.
Get your personal access token
Sign in to Smartsheet.
Go to Account → Apps & Integrations → API Access.
Choose Generate new access token and copy it.
Smartsheet shows a new token once. Copy it straight into Grassfed — if you lose it, generate another one rather than hunting for it.
Find your Sheet ID
The Sheet ID tells Grassfed which sheet to write into. In Smartsheet, open the sheet and go to File → Properties — the Sheet ID is listed there. It is a long run of digits, and Grassfed will reject anything that is not numbers only, which catches the common mistake of pasting the sheet's web address instead.
Map your columns
The Column mapping section is where you tell Grassfed which of your Smartsheet columns each piece of a reply belongs in. Eight pieces of information can be mapped:
Field | What lands in that column |
Lead name | The lead's name. |
Lead email | The lead's email address. |
Phone | The lead's phone number. |
Property address | The property address. |
Reply text | The body of the lead's reply. |
Campaign | The campaign name. |
Reply date | The date the lead replied. |
Starred date | The date you starred the lead. |
Every row is optional — leave a row blank to skip it, and that piece of information simply is not written. Map only what your sheet actually has columns for.
Each box takes a column ID, not a column name. To find one, right-click the column header in Smartsheet and choose Properties. Like the Sheet ID, a column ID is numbers only; if you paste something else, Grassfed tells you to copy the column ID straight from Smartsheet rather than saving a mapping that would fail later.
Connect it
On the Smartsheet card, click Connect.
Paste your token into Personal access token.
Enter your Sheet ID.
Fill in the Column mapping rows you want.
Click Connect Smartsheet.
Changing something later
On a connected card, Configure reopens the same form with your settings already filled in — your Sheet ID and column mapping come back exactly as you left them, so you can adjust one row without redoing the rest.
The credential box is the one thing that never comes back prefilled, because Grassfed does not hand your key back to anybody, including you. Leave it blank to keep the key you already saved. Type in it only when you genuinely want to replace the credential — for example after rotating it in Follow Up Boss or Smartsheet.
Click Save changes and the card confirms "… settings saved."
Important — If a key looks too short
Grassfed rejects a credential under eight characters with "that … looks too short — check you pasted the whole thing." A truncated paste is far more common than a genuinely short key, and storing it would give you a connection that says Connected and then quietly fails on every sync. Copy the whole value and try again.
