How would I track event invitations and attendance in Pipedrive?
One of our main marketing activities is conference talks. How would I track invitations to such talks and respective attendance in Pipedrive?

Streamline adding new contacts after meetings
Adding people from a meeting to an organization after a sales meeting seems like a fundamental and super common thing. It also seems like it would be relatively easy to automate this from the calendar view (add all participants as contacts and attach to an organization). Currently it seems like the only ways to do this are…
Work around with automatisations for the problem of due dates in project activities?
We do have a strong issue with projects-date-dependency: if you are using a project-template, it always has a starting date. Once you are not 100% sure about the starting date (as it is always a bit dependend on the client), or when some steps get dalyed, you do have a problem with all the activities pre-defined in the…
Selecting Activities as Private
When creating activities would like to be able to select whether they are Private or Public. Please can you add this to your product maintenance.
Hourly sales activity report missing
Currently I am doing this in excel and downloading data every day. It is showing me when a sales rep has added or updated an activity. This way I can see if they are active or not, hourly. It would be great to have this insight in pipedrive done automatically. It is a report showing Activities activity split by hour…
Event in Zapier: Updated Activity? doesn't exist
We have successfully used the "New Activity" event to notify team members when they are assigned to an activity (using Slack DM notification through Zapier). Our goal is now to notify users when an activity is updated...ideally because that activity has now be assigned to them specifically. There are a number of instant…

Adding Activities For Multiple Contacts at Once
is there any way to have them put in a feature where I can select multiple contacts and add an activity for all of them at once? I spend a lot of time just going back and forth between screens so I can add contacts to an activity list for a day. Seems like a quick and easy feature that could be added that would make this…
Project activities' dates
Hello, We have noticed that when you set a project start date, and you add activities to it, the dates of those activities don't change when you modify the project date. We would also like to be able to postpone all the activities at once when we change a date on a prior activity. Thank you !
Deals, Activities & Future Calendar Meetings?
Hi all, I've got a question on how best to track next steps in Pipedrive. TL:DR: if I've got a future meeting already on my google calendar with a contact linked to a deal, how can that be noted/linked? Detail: I've got a deal. The deal has one contact. The email for the contact is properly defined. I've got a meeting in…
Immediate notification when an Activity is assigned
Hi all, Is there a way to get immediate email notification for each time a new activity is assigned? I can get the Email summaries once a day, but I want an email for each activity assigned to me and I'd like it to arrive right away instead of waiting for the scheduled daily scheduled email time. Is this possible? Thank you
Using Zapier to send Slack DMs to Activity Owner?
I’ve tried Zapier to send a Slack DM to an Activity Owner. The To: box wants me to select either a specific Slack user OR a field from Pipedrive. I would love to choose Pipedrive:“Activity Owner Name” and have that match to the Slack user associated with that owner name. Does any one know if that is possible?
Sequence Automation for Sales Flow
Hi All, I have just set up the Sales Pipeline for my sales team, and they are really getting the hang of it. Therefore, I've decided to introduce them to automations to create sequences. The way I've done it is by adding an "Enroll in Sequence" field, where they can create a new option in the data fields and then trigger…

Activities created via automation show up on my calendar but not on the Contacts Page
My Automation creates a activity to "call the prospect in 1 day" I ran the automation today and the call showed on my calendar however not on the Contact page. I was hoping to go to the Lead contact page and see the email that was sent and the activity for tomorrow. Is this an error or does the automation not populate…
Change activity done time and date
As part of our reporting structure and KPI's, we have to hit a certain amount of activities per day. If we are out on the road all day, it is sometimes difficult to update all your activities done in that day. We would like a feature where we can adjust the 'marked as done' time / date so we can update our Pipedrive when…
Call logging - Desktop
I was wondering if anyone could help. We use Microsoft teams as our VOIP and can make calls direct from Pipedrive as all set up as the default phone call handler for VOIP. However, when you make a call on the desktop it doesn't give any options to log the call. I've seen this is possible on the mobile app but can't see it…
Turn off Notifications in Calendar Sync
We are currently using One-Way Calendar Sync. (More on why here: Calendar Sync Needs to NOT Pull in Activities from External Calendar — Pipedrive Community) Our Users have complained that while it is helpful to see their Activities in Outlook, they are being inundated with notification alerts all times of the day related…
SMS sending with Zapier and Twilio
I have been trying to find a decent way to send SMS messages with Pipedrive, but Im not satisfied with the pricing for the tools that allow you to send texts and the price per text I've used Twilio a lot and I love Twilio Studio. So I figured out a clever way to user Pipedrive activities, Activity Filters, Twilio and…
How to assign tasks to leads in bulk?
I want to assign tasks/activities for my sales team. I have lets say 100 leads, all of which that need to be called this week. How can I assign a "Call this lead," type of task or activity to these 100 leads without going one at a time.
Have the option the mark as done the the recurring tasks from an external calendar
Since Pipedrive doesn't offer recurring activities right now (and from what it seems it's something that has been pushed for more than 3 years - it's probably pretty complex to implement! - no judgment). It would be great to have the option to keep track and be able to mark as done the the recurring tasks from an external…
How to log calls for leads?
Lets say I had a call with a lead, how do I log it?
Tasks & Activities lists - separate from the deal cycle
I believe that have option to add lists for 'general' tasks that are not related to a deal or contact, etc would be a great thing to have. Currently, there is an option to create an activity that isn't 'tied' to anything but it's hard to keep track of these once you have several of those. Have the possibility to add those…
How to get rid of non-deal related items in Emails and Activity reports?
Terribly disappointed in the Emails and Activity reports/insights. We upgraded to the more expensive package to enable full 2-way sync, so we can get rid of manual BCCing, but now it turns out this renders both Emails and Activity reports essentially useless, because these include ALL emails and meetings. The only way to…
How to add "if not" condition in automations
Hello everyone, I designed some automations to create new activities when a deal is moved to a next stage. However sometimes it happens that a deal is moved backward and this creates some issues since the same automatic activities are duplicated. I'd like to set a conditions like: "Create activity x when a deal is moved to…
Automatic Activity Creation
Hi - new user and I have the Gmail/Cal Chrome extension going. I want to be sure any activity I have with a person in an organization is tracked on the timeline of the org. When the contact and org are already created and I create it - they link. But, when a known person schedules with me, or when I schedule with an…
About Activities permissions
Hey. It would be very useful feature to have different permissions for activities. We work thru activities all the time and problem is that some people dont need all 37 activities what we have in total. Sales people need certain and then we have "personal" activities also for certain people. Eventlink / Petri Lehtinen
I don't want to program an activity when I check an activity as done.
It is my first week with Pipedrive I'm doing my configurations. I like how an activity can be check as done, this activity just consists in the user filling up 3 fields. But I found very annoying that after checking one activity I see the "Program an activity". Why? Why I want to program an activity after checking the…
