Import Your Highrise Companies and Deals into Pulse

Posted on July 30th, 2009 in New Features & Updates

Just this week, we added a great new feature for importing information into your Pulse account. If you’re familiar with or use Highrise, the web based CRM from 37signals, then you can now import your companies and deals into Pulse. Here’s how:

From the Pulse Companies tab, you will now find an import section in the sidebar:

You have long been able to import your Basecamp companies and projects, and now you can import your Highrise companies. In addition to companies, we’ve also added the ability to import your Highrise Deals into Pulse as projects.

Just click on the appropriate link and you’ll be taken to the import page. Simply, enter in your Highrise account details and paste in your API authentication token from Highrise. You can find the API token by going to the “My Info” section in Highrise. That page will look something like this:

Once you have entered in your Highrise details, just click on the “Continue To Import…” button and you’ll be shown a list of companies or projects to review before import. After you’ve selected the appropriate companies, click “Import From Highrise” to import the information into Pulse.

It’s that simple. Now when you go to add income or expenses, you’ll see your list of Highrise companies and deals listed as projects. We hope you find this new feature useful.

With the great response we’ve received over the past few months since launching Pulse 2.0, it has become apparent that we needed a better way to communicate to you our users and community. Because of this, we have decided to start this new blog.

To start, the blog will mainly be centered around new features and updates we add to Pulse as well as general announcements. However, over time, we hope this blog will be a great resource for all things related to Pulse in regards to tips and resources, case studies and general information about cash flow and accounting. Also, leave your thoughts on what you’d like to see talked about in the comment section of this blog.

So, stay tuned. We’ve got some exciting plans for Pulse in the coming months, and this blog will be our main point of communication. We’ll still be updating our Twitter account, sending out the newsletter, and you can also grab the blog’s RSS feed to stay in the loop.
