Pull Contact Name from Proposal/Opportunity

Adelle Mantle

How do I pull the name of the contact listed on the Proposal/Opportunity? I've used List Constituent Relationships but it doesn't pull the one listed on the Proposal/Opportunity.

Thanks!

Hi @Adelle Mantle - I don't think this is possible in a straight-forward sense, you will likely need to do a work around as “Contact” is listed on a Database View Proposal but not on a Web View Opportunity. The connectors with Power Automate are only able to look for information that exists within Web View.

You may be able to work around this if there is an area of the Org/Ind Contact Relationship that contains corresponding information such as “Contact Type”. Additionally, you could link to an exported file to get this information as well but that can be much more complex and may not be worth it for only this singular piece of information.

@Adelle Mantle I haven't worked with Proposals and Opportunities much but I just created an opportunity and typed in a name that wasn't in our database to make sure I was pulling the right name value. Is that what you're looking for?

Hi, Matt:

Unfortunately, that pulls the name of the proposal. I'm looking for the name of the contact.

Thanks, Austen. I'm already pulling the contact type from the List Constituent Relationships functionality, but that doesn't always correspond to the contact listed on the proposal.

Do you happen to know if Blackbaud will be adding the contact field to Opportunities in web view? If not, do you know where I can submit this product request?

Thanks!
