Close
LiveOverview
The Close integration creates Leads in your Close CRM when ClearView identifies companies visiting your website. When a new company is detected or a lead reaches hot status, ClearView pushes the company data into Close as a Lead so your sales team can start outreach immediately. Enrichment data including industry, company size, and lead score is included with each record.
What Gets Synced
- Companies created as Close Leads
- Company name, domain, and URL
- Industry and employee range
- Lead score as a custom field
- Visitor activity added as notes
- First and last seen timestamps

Troubleshooting
Test connection fails with "401 Unauthorized"
Your API key may be invalid or revoked. Go to Close > Settings > API Keys to verify the key is active. If needed, create a new key and update it in ClearView.
Leads are not being created in Close
Ensure the integration shows a green "Connected" badge in ClearView Settings > Integrations. Also verify your Close account has not exceeded its API rate limits.
Duplicate leads appearing
ClearView deduplicates by company domain. If existing Close leads do not have a URL set, duplicates may be created. Ensure existing leads have their URL field populated.
Custom fields not appearing
ClearView creates custom fields (Industry, Company Size, ClearView Score) automatically on first sync. Ensure your Close plan supports custom fields and your API key has sufficient permissions.
