Manage user record

On the People tab, use the add action in the bottom right of the screen.

Fill in first, middle and last name and pick a birthdate. Choose whether this record is a person or an organisation, set the gender, add a mobile number and email address, then save. The record is written to your NationBuilder database.

The rest of the detail is added from the profile itself — see the next section.

Open somebody’s profile and use the edit action in the top right. That reopens the same form you used to create them.

Individual sections of the profile are edited in place, each from its own edit action.

• Point person and Recruited by. Edit either to open a searchable list of people in your nation, then pick the person you want.
• Support. Volunteer status and do-not-contact are direct toggles. Support level and priority level open a picker.
• Employer. Employer name and related details.
• Profile bio. The person’s headline and biography.
• Notes. Free-text notes about this person.
• Family and religious details. Household and faith fields.
• Email. Several addresses can be held. Mark one as primary, or mark an address bad.
• Phone and mobile. Home, work and mobile numbers, with the option to flag a bad number.
• Addresses. Fill the address by hand, or search from the top of the form to autocomplete it and let the fields populate themselves.

• Voting details. Registration and voting history fields.
• Districts. District assignments. Federal, state upper and state lower districts are shown but cannot be edited — those come from NationBuilder.
• Memberships. Edit a membership from its own action, or add a new one.
• Other identifiers. External ids that tie this record to third-party platforms.

A NationBuilder path this person is on, with every step and where they currently stand.

• Invite to Path. Put this person on a path that does not have them yet.
• Update progress. Move this person to a different step, or mark the path abandoned.
• Step list. Completed steps show a checkmark, the current step is highlighted, and steps still ahead are numbered.
• Current step and Status. A summary at the foot of the path: which step they are on now, and whether the path is in progress, completed, or abandoned.

A read-only history: contacts logged against this person, survey responses they have given, and their donations. Which of these appear depends on the permissions granted to you.

Tap Select at the top of the People tab to enter selection mode, then tick everyone you want to act on and choose an action from the bottom of the screen.

• Add to a NationBuilder list. Pick the list they should all join.
• Add to a canvassing list. Pick the canvassing list to add them to.
• Log contact. Record the same contact against everyone selected.
• RSVP to an event. Pick an event and RSVP the whole selection.
• Add tags. Apply a tag to everyone selected.
• Delete. Remove the selected records.
