folk connects with an API key and nothing else. Generate it in Integrations, paste it in, map your groups to partner tiers, and decide what partners can see.
In folk, open your workspace settings and go to Integrations. Create an API key and copy the value as soon as it appears.
Open Airstride's App Centre and select folk. Paste the key you just copied. Airstride requests only the access it needs, and the connect screen lists every scope before you grant it.
Airstride reads your folk fields automatically, so the map is ready to review the moment you land on it rather than something you build from scratch. Confirm the matches Airstride resolved, then point any custom fields wherever you need them.
Mapping changes apply on the next sync, which is immediate. You never reconnect to change a map.
Use field-level permissions to control partner visibility over stage, value, contacts, custom fields and notes. Apply permission sets per partner role and they are enforced everywhere: the portal, the API and every export.
Two-way and real time. Register a deal in Airstride and the matching records appear in folk instantly. Update a record in folk and Airstride reflects it in seconds.
Beyond the folk connection, Airstride handles your full setup within 24 hours of signup. Our team migrates all partner data from your CRM, PRM or spreadsheets, connects your partner collateral from Google Docs and other content sources, white-labels your portal to your brand, configures SSO, trains and enables the Partner Activation Agent, and invites your partners. You start day one with everything connected and working.
Groups arrive as options in the field map, so a group called Resellers can point at the Reseller tier. Airstride reads your group names to build the list; it never renames or reorganises them.
The Person record follows the change and the partner account it belongs to is updated on the next sync, which is immediate. You do not maintain the same person in two places.
Only the records the sync creates or updates. Airstride does not restructure your groups, rename custom fields, or reorder anything you have set up.
No. Mapping changes take effect on the next sync, which is immediate. The connection itself is untouched.
The same steps apply across every CRM Airstride connects to. See the CRM guides for the one you run on, or the integrations directory for the full list.
