Frequent Questions

What do I do if I think the connection is not working?

Just email us at support@nicejob.com or click the blue chat icon in the NiceJob app and let us know! We'll work with you to get it up and running.

How do I prevent invites from being sent to certain customers?

To do that, you will need to set up another Zap that sends over the client's information to NiceJob through a Zapier Webhook as soon as you add them to your ServiceMinder account. Please reach out to support@nicejob.com if you need help setting this up.

Once that's done, anytime you add someone new in ServiceMinder their contact info will show up in NiceJob. Then you can Block them from being enrolled in the Get Reviews campaign by going to the People Page, clicking on the customer's profile that you want to block, clicking on the three dots next their name, and selecting 'Block'. Make sure you do this before triggering whatever event you chose in step 6.

How do I pause/remove the connection?

To pause the connection, head over to Zapier and turn off the respective Zap.

To remove the connection completely, you can delete the Trigger from ServiceMinder


Does ServiceMinder send employee data to NiceJob so that my reviews can get automatically attributed to the right employee?

No, they don't. Learn more about employee attribution and other ways you can make use of it here.
