Clicking on this is a container list of locations. How do I input CRM as described above?
This integration has not worked for me thus far.

Hi Andrew,
It looks like FullContact has made changes on their end. You should be fine with whatever location you input. Make sure you enter a real phone number because they ask for verification via call/SMS.
I will update this article. Thanks for bringing this to our attention!

This isn't working. Will FullContact pull from Front contacts, or only contacts in other tools?

Tim Berman Hi there,
The FullContact integration will pull all available contact information for the person sending the email from the Internet.
