Connections Hub is a central hub of integrations and utilities that connect to your Nation's data.
It's built and supported by NationBuilder, and gives you access to a growing set of tools that work directly with your NationBuilder account no — developer required.
Current tools in Connections Hub include:
Wealth Screening (with Kindsight's iWave): a donor prospecting integration that enriches supporter profiles with additional data from iWave's database.
List Splitter: a utility for splitting lists in bulk within your Nation.
List Destroyer: a utility for destroying lists in bulk within your Nation.
Tag Destroyer: a utility for destroying tags in bulk within your Nation.
The tools are independent of one another, and may have their own separate documentation. This article covers ConnectionsHub itself; what it is and how to connect your Nation to get started.
Does it cost anything?
ConnectionsHub is free, and the tools built by NationBuilder are included at no additional charge. Some tools connect to a third-party service to do their work — Wealth Screening uses Kindsight's iWave, for example — and those providers may charge for use of their own services. Where that applies, the tool's own guide says so and explains how the charges work. Tools added in the future may be offered differently, and any NationBuilder cost will be clearly noted on a per-tool basis.
Do I need a developer?
No. Connecting your Nation to ConnectionsHub takes a few clicks and requires only a NationBuilder admin account with API permissions. No technical setup is needed.
How to connect your Nation
Enter your NationBuilder slug. Your slug is the part of your NationBuilder address that comes before
.nationbuilder.com. For example, if your site ismyorg.nationbuilder.com, your slug ismyorg.Log in with your NationBuilder admin account. You'll be redirected to your Nation to log-in. The account you use needs a level of access with API permissions enabled.
Authorize the connection. After logging in, you'll see a screen asking you to authorize Connections Hub to access your Nation's data. Click Authorize. You'll be redirected back to Connections Hub, and your Nation is now connected.
From here, the tools within ConnectionsHub are safely able to work with your nation's data.
📌 Note: If you manage more than one Nation, you'll go through this process once per Nation. Each connection is managed separately.
