This guide explains how users of the FYI integration can manually sync clients and contacts, and how to manage or correct client links between Socket and FYI.
It covers:
Syncing clients with FYI on demand.
Overriding an incorrectly linked FYI client or entity.
Removing an FYI client link.
Where to Find Sync Options
On the client record screen, you’ll see a link to that client in FYI, from the External Links dropdown.
Click the pencil icon to edit the client link.
Sync on Demand – Update Clients from FYI
In most cases, syncing happens automatically overnight. However, you can manually trigger a sync if something looks out of date or incorrect.
Override the Linked FYI Client or Entity
If a client has been linked to the wrong FYI entity, you can manually override the link. This immediately updates the connection and ensures future syncs use the correct FYI record.
How to Override a Link
Click to edit the client FYI link from 'External Links' on the client page (see above).
Click the drop down under 'Customer'.
Select the correct FYI client or entity.
Remove a Client Link
If a client should no longer be linked to FYI, you can remove the link entirely.
How to Remove a Link
Click to edit the client FYI link from 'External Links' on the client page (see above).
Choose Remove Link.
Confirm the action.
Once removed:
The client is no longer connected to FYI.
Syncing will stop for that client.
You can relink the client later if needed.
