Auto-validation

With this feature, you’re able to validate any new contact added to your integration automatically. To do so, you must establish an integration with one of the compatible platforms. After doing this, select Integrations from the menu and select your integration. Once you’re there, go to the Real-Time Validation section, where you can toggle auto-validation ON.

With auto-validation enabled, ZeroBounce will validate your new contacts automatically once added to your integration, ensuring they are valid and deliverable.

NOTE:

There is also the possibility to share your contacts between integrations, schedule scoring and validation or monitor your contacts to validate any new contact automatically. To learn more about this, check out this dedicated page: Integrations Contacts Monitoring, Scheduling and Sharing.
