CSV data is matched against records in Demandbase using the following rules:

Accounts are matched against data from your CRM or Demandbase using the following prioritization:

• External account ID (if provided)
• Account domain + account name

Opportunities are matched against accounts using

• account domain
• account name
• or external account ID.

People are matched against accounts using

• external account ID
• account domain
• or account name.

Important: Importing people records only makes the data available for advertising campaigns.

To see individual activity at the person level, an integration with a CRM or Marketing Automation System is required.

Activities are matched against accounts or people using the external person ID.

Important: If the external person ID is related to an account, then the activity is matched against both the account and the person. If the external person ID is not related to an account, then the activity is matched against the person only.
