How Loft works with SkySlope

Setting up SkySlope

The SkySlope integration will save you time by eliminating the need for duplicate data entry.

Here are the step-by-step instructions, as well as this video.

To set up the integration, ensure you are a SkySlope Administrator for your Brokerage. EACH user must connect to SkySlope.

Enable your SkySlope integration by navigating to Loft>Integrations> Click Edit

Expand the Skyslope section>check the Enable checkbox

Choose the time frame you want to import deals into Loft from the Import SkySlope From dropdown field.

Head to SkySlope>My Account

Click the Integrations tab

Click Generate button to generate the API Key & Secret & download or save that information for the next step.

This will generate your Access & Secret Key, you can either copy each key or download the keys.

Head back to Loft47>Integrations & select the SkySlope menu and click Connect SkySlope.

You will be prompted to enter your Access Key & Secret from the previous step.

Once you have completed this step, you are connected to SkySlope!

Importing deals from SkySlope

To import deals follow the steps below or watch here:

Head to Integrations>SkySlope> Click the Reload button to import new deals, for existing deal not created yet, simply click on the address and then click the create deal button to import deals into Loft47. 

The following are required to import a deal in Loft:

1. SkySlope transactions must have an Agent on the transaction. 
   
2. The deal in SkySlope can not be expired.
   
3. The Agent email address in SkySlope must match the Loft47 email address used for that Agent.
   
4. Transactions must have a unique MLS number. If you do not have a unique MLS number for the transaction we suggest using the Zip Code twice, or another unique number of your choosing.

Contact importing

​

New contacts will import along with your deal in SkySlope, see field mapping below.  Existing contacts in a deal in SkySlope will update if you add them in exactly as the contact is in Loft. Example.  In the deal below, we added Bronson Blueberry with the co broker company as Blueberry Real Estate Ltd

The organization name matched exactly and was then imported into the deal like so

So as long as the names match exactly, your co-broker contacts will merge to their respective org profiles in Loft.  If you find they're not matching, we suggest you check the spelling on the contact in skyslope and make sure it doesn't have superfluous spaces, punctuation, etc.
