New! The Church Management Certified Connector for Microsoft Power Platform is now available!

Lindsey Rix

Are you the person at your church who takes a technical problem and turns it into an opportunity to improve? Do you like thinking of ways to automate repetitive tasks?

The certified connector between Blackbaud Church Management and the Microsoft Power Platform™ - Power Apps™, Power Automate™ and Power Virtual Agents™ - empowers people like you to quickly and easily build apps, automate workflows, and solve challenges holding your church back from meeting its full potential.

“Power Automate just makes connecting things a lot quicker,” said Ben Regier from Mennonite Mission USA.

Do your congregants need a way to notify you of their Cares, Concerns, and need to Connect, separate from the Prayer Wall? With Power Automate you can leverage DIY Forms to provide congregants with an online experience, that can automatically log the submitted care, concern, or request to connect in Church Management, prompting next steps for your ministry team. With Power Automate, its 100% possible!

The certified connector is available at no cost to Church Management customers. You can access it starting today by visiting the Blackbaud Marketplace located in the Solutions menu in the upper left of Church Management. The connector does require a Power Platform license from Microsoft, which is available for most social good organizations for a discount. Learn more about Microsoft licensing.
