Can I automatically create custom questions and mappings?

Once you have created custom questions and mappings, you may want to apply them to future events. You can copy questions and mappings from another event. To do this;

Manually, existing event
1. Go to the Eventbrite event record in Salesforce
2. Click Questions / Answers
3. Click the Create button
4. Select Copy Questions from Existing Event
5. Select the Eventbrite event you want to copy from
6. Click Copy Questions

Manually, new event (clone option, preserve answer mapping)

In Salesforce, ​​​​open the event that has the questions you want to recreate. Click Clone in the action menu. Update the date, title, and other information as needed for the new event, and click Clone Event. This will create a new event in Eventbrite with the questions as well as preserve the answer mapping in Salesforce

Automatically
To give you the maximum flexibility, we have built an invocable action that can be used in a Salesforce flow. It is important to note that we don't support flows or custom development. If in any doubt, please contact your Salesforce administrator or consultant. When you start to build your flow, ensure you are using an Asynchronous path.

The steps can be found below, but we also have this step by step guide which shows the whole process end to end -https://app.arcade.software/share/1qPj6OKL3OMLunvuprGs

Steps

  1. Click Create Action and look for - Clone Eventbrite Question Mappings.
  2. Ensure the invocable action is in an asynchronous path as it is making a callout (as above).
  3. The From Event Id is the Eventbrite Name value (e.g. 732646845437) you are copying from. 
  4. The To Event Id is the Eventbrite event you are copying the questions and mappings to. The variable for that is {!$Record.Name}

Like any Salesforce custom development, ensure you fully understand and test the flow before deploying.

Important Notes
1. Our small team can't support your custom flows, but we can recommend a consulting partner if need be.
2. The automatic invocable action uses the same code as the manual method. A good way to test is to use the manual copy option.
3. If the event you are copying to has the same question already created, then the flow won't work.
