Have a Google or Office 365 email connected to Follow Up Boss with inbox lead processing turned on? If so, you can route or forward your Realtor.ca "new lead" email alerts to that Google or Office 365 email, and the new leads will be created in Follow Up Boss automatically.
If not, you'll want the Realtor.ca "new lead" email alerts sent or forwarded to your Follow Up Boss lead routing email address, which you can find on the Admin>API page here: https://app.followupboss.com/2/api
You can create an auto forwarding rule in your email inbox that forwards the "new lead" email alerts from Realtor.ca to your Follow Up Boss lead routing email address.
The steps for creating an auto forwarding rule in Google Mail are below (most email providers have a similar feature):

5. Click "Add a forwarding address":
6. Paste your Follow Up Boss lead routing email address (from the Admin>API page: https://app.followupboss.com/2/api)
7. Click Next.
8. Google will ask you to verify the forwarding email address. When it sends the verification message to yourFollow Up Boss lead routing email address, Follow Up Boss will forward the notification to you. You can find the confirmation link in the forwarded message, and you'll want to follow Google's steps in that message to confirm your forwarding email.
9. In your Google Mail inbox, open a recent "new lead" email notification from Realtor.ca.
10. Click the three dots in the upper-right corner of the message, and choose "Filter messages like this"
11. Click "Create filter"
12. Choose the option to "Forward it to:" and choose your Follow Up Boss lead routing email address, then click "Create filter"
The next time you get a notification email for a Realtor.ca lead, it will be automatically forwarded to your Follow Up Boss lead routing email address. That allows our system to parse the email and create the lead automatically for you in Follow Up Boss.
