Every solar lead. Synced. Booked. Noted.
Niche connects to Sunbase — the solar industry's CRM — to sync customers live, book consultations against real slots, route by territory, and push call notes back after every conversation.
What syncs, and when
No CSVs. No nightly cron.
Live, bidirectional, idempotent. Niche reads what it needs from Sunbase and writes back at the right moment in the conversation.
- Customers + contact fields In Webhook + nightly reconcile
- Lead status, source, territory tags In On every customer update
- Appointment slots In Per call / per booking link
- Consultation bookings Out Mid-call or self-service
- Call + activity notes Out Workflow action
- Calculator quote requests In On form submit
- DNC flag Both Live
What it actually does
Five things only happen when Niche talks to Sunbase.
Solar quote calculator → Sunbase
Niche-built white-label calculators (e.g. Sol-Up at solup.nicheandleads.com) create Sunbase customers on submit with lead source niche-calculator-solup — system size, financing, savings, and adders in the customer comments.
Webhook + reconciliation sync
Customers arrive via Sunbase webhooks the moment they're created or updated. A nightly job reconciles yesterday's changes so nothing slips through if a webhook is missed.
Namespaced tag mapping
Sunbase fields like leadStatus, leadSource, territory, and apptStatus become searchable tags — `sunbase:leadSource:Solar`, `sunbase:leadStatus:EC_in_progress` — ready for workflow triggers.
Territory-based routing
Map Sunbase territory UUIDs to your Niche businesses. Multi-market installers keep one inbound number; each lead lands in the right office queue automatically.
Live slot booking
Niche fetches Sunbase availability via the scheduling API, narrates 2-hour in-home windows or showroom slots to callers, and books via `update_post.jsp` — confirmed before hang-up.
Self-service booking pages
Public `/book/:token` pages read the same Sunbase slots. Homeowners choose consultation type, pick a time, and receive SMS confirmation with your prep instructions.
Bidirectional notes
The `update_sunbase_notes` workflow action appends structured notes to the linked Sunbase customer — call summaries, dispositions, and appointment details included.
Setup
