Housecallpro (2) When you connect the integration, Quo imports your Housecall Pro customers as contacts. It then refreshes those contacts automatically every hour. Contact sync is one-way from Housecall Pro to Quo, so Housecall Pro remains the source of truth. When Quo can reliably match a contact to a Housecall Pro customer, calls and text messages are logged to that customer’s record in Housecall Pro. The integration is available on the **Quo Business and Scale plans**. It requires a Housecall Pro **MAX or XL plan** with API access. Only a Quo workspace Owner or Admin can connect it, and only a Housecall Pro Admin can generate the API key. *** ## What the Housecall Pro integration does ### Syncs Housecall Pro customers into Quo Quo runs an initial customer import when the integration is connected. After that, it checks Housecall Pro hourly for new and updated customer information. Supported data includes: * Customer name * Phone numbers * Email addresses * Other supported contact details, such as company or role, when available Contact sync is one-way, from Housecall Pro to Quo. Contacts imported from Housecall Pro are read-only in Quo, so make any changes to customer details directly in Housecall Pro. Updates will appear in Quo after the next hourly sync. ### Logs Quo activity to Housecall Pro customer records When Quo can reliably match a contact to a Housecall Pro customer, it logs supported activity to that customer’s record: * Incoming and outgoing calls * Incoming and outgoing text messages If Quo cannot safely match the contact to a customer, the activity remains available in Quo and nothing is created in Housecall Pro. The integration does not create placeholder customers. Only new activity is logged after the integration is connected. Historical Quo activity is not backfilled. *** ## Before you connect You’ll need: * A Quo Business or Scale plan * A Housecall Pro MAX or XL plan with API access * Quo workspace Owner or Admin permissions * Housecall Pro Admin permissions * A Housecall Pro API key with **Full access** A read-only API key can import customer data but cannot support the full integration, including logging Quo activity back to Housecall Pro. *** ## Create a Housecall Pro API key 1.

For the most reliable matching: * Make sure each Housecall Pro customer has a current phone number. * Avoid assigning the same phone number to unrelated customer records. * Store phone numbers in a valid format, including the country code when applicable. Customers without a usable phone number may not import or match. If several unrelated customers share the same number, Quo may be unable to choose a safe match and will not log duplicate activity. *** ## Find Quo activity in Housecall Pro 1. Open the matched customer in Housecall Pro. 2. Go to the customer's **Notes** section 3. Find the Quo call or text entry, including a deeplink back to the activity in Quo.
