About Affinity

Affinity is one of the CRM platforms BeforeQuery connects to. Once linked, the platform's data becomes a first-class source for grounded AI answers and a target for policy-gated agent actions — the same identity, approval, and audit-log guarantees every other integration ships with.

Use cases

What teams actually do with the Affinity integration

Real-time deal-status Q&A

Sales leader asks "how's the Acme deal?" in Slack → BeforeQuery pulls the Affinity opp, recent activity, next steps, and stage momentum. Answer in seconds; no Affinity tab open.

Meeting-prep briefings

Before every customer meeting, BeforeQuery drafts a prep brief: account history from Affinity, recent activity, open opps, product usage, and open support tickets. Delivered to the AE 30 min before the call.

Auto-log activity from calls + emails

Zoom transcripts + email threads get summarized and logged as Affinity activities on the correct opp — with next-steps and sentiment flags. AE reviews the log, doesn't type it.

Answer questions grounded in Affinity

Employees and customers ask Affinity-related questions in Slack, Teams, or the widget — BeforeQuery answers with the exact Affinity record shown alongside the response. No context switching, no "log into CRM to check" round-trips.

Affinity — Frequently Asked Questions

Common questions about connecting BeforeQuery to Affinity.

Yes, gated by your approval matrix. Small stage moves (Discovery → Qualified) can be autopilot on evidence; large moves (Proposal → Closed Won) always require the AE's confirmation with a reason logged.
Standard OAuth 2.0 where Affinity supports it, otherwise API-key or bearer-token auth. Credentials are stored encrypted at rest (AES-256-GCM) per workspace, never shared across customers, and rotated on request. The connection is scoped to the least-privilege set of scopes each playbook needs — you approve the scope list on install.
No. Your Affinity data feeds only your workspace's own agents and answers. Nothing is used to train a shared model, and nothing crosses workspace boundaries. Bring-your-own-model is available on Enterprise if you want to pin inference to your own OpenAI / Anthropic / self-hosted deployment.
Yes. Every Affinity integration is scoped at install time — you pick which resources, users, or record types are visible. You can further restrict per-playbook: a single playbook only touches the specific Affinity objects it needs. Scope changes take effect on the next sync.
Every write is logged with the acting user, the playbook that fired it, the exact operation, the target entity IDs, and the timestamp — all in the immutable audit log. Writes are rehearsable in simulation mode against a copy of live data before they touch Affinity for real.
