Connecting Luminate with Power Automate

Hi all,

I'm trying to create a flow in Power Automate that takes a list from RE NXT (New Donors) and puts it into a group in Luminate. Has anyone done this before or does anyone have a template willing to share? Thanks.

  • Hi @Wendy Turner I didn't see any replies in the Luminate Community, so I moved this discussion over to the SKY Developer community in hopes of getting more developer replies. Thanks!

  • Thanks so much!

    Hi @Wendy Turner - before turning to Power Automate, do you have an option via a data sync tool such as RELO or Omatic?

    This should be possible with PA - you'd need to leverage the LO Constituent API but would be complex as you'd need to check first to see if the constituent exists and then have branches to create new if needed or add the group id. You'll need to use the "Send http request" action and include your authentication.

    I tried to do this previously with PA too but did not go anyway with it.

    Main issue: RESTful API for LO is extremely limited in its ability; the SOAP API requires pre-set IP address that is allowed to issue API call, which is hard to do with Power Automate as it has many IP ranges.

    The only hope for LO custom integration you try to do is if Blackbaud has a RESTful API endpoint that allow for Populating Group with Member. (there is a Create New Group today, but no populate)
