About JobNimbus

JobNimbus is an all-in-one CRM and project management platform designed specifically for contractors, with a strong focus on roofing, construction, and home improvement businesses. The platform combines lead management, sales tracking, job execution, payment processing, and team coordination in a mobile-first solution built for field teams and office staff alike.

The JobNimbus API enables developers to:

Key API features

• Authenticate using OAuth 2.0 or API keys generated from account settings.

• Access and manage Contacts, Jobs, Payments, and other core entities via RESTful endpoints.

• Implement pagination, sorting, and filtering for efficient data retrieval.

• Build custom integrations beyond the native integration catalog.

• Create webhook-based automations for real-time event handling.

Why Integrate JobNimbus with Emergent

Building custom applications on top of JobNimbus directly typically requires API client setup, OAuth implementation, complex data mapping between JobNimbus entities and your business logic, user interface development, and infrastructure maintenance. Each custom tool can quickly become a multi-week engineering project requiring specialized contractor domain knowledge.

Emergent eliminates that complexity by letting you build by prompt, providing contractor-domain aware mappings, secure credential handling, real-time workflow primitives, multi-tool orchestration, and rapid iteration.

How Emergent Works with JobNimbus in Real Time?

STEP 1: Describe your app

Example: "Build a job tracking dashboard that shows all active JobNimbus jobs on a Kanban board, sends Slack alerts when jobs move to 'Ready for Production,' syncs completed jobs to QuickBooks for invoicing, and generates weekly performance reports in Google Sheets."

STEP 2: Declare integrations

Say "JobNimbus + Slack + QuickBooks + Google Sheets." Emergent sets up API providers, authentication methods, and recommended connection patterns for each service.

STEP 3: Secure credentials

Provide your JobNimbus API key (generated from Settings > Integration > API in your JobNimbus account) or complete OAuth authentication. Keys are stored in an encrypted vault with environment-specific isolation (development, staging, production) and role-based access controls.

STEP 4: Configure JobNimbus data access

Emergent guides you through selecting the JobNimbus resources you need: Contacts, Jobs, Payments, Tasks, or custom workflow statuses. Define filters based on job type, status, date ranges, assigned team members, or custom fields.

STEP 5: Map data and workflows

Emergent helps you map JobNimbus job fields, contact information, payment status, and workflow stages to your application's data model. Configure automation triggers like status changes, payment receipts, or task completions, and define downstream actions like notifications, CRM updates, or report generation.

STEP 6: Real-time and scheduled operations

Set up polling intervals to check for JobNimbus updates, configure event-driven triggers for immediate responses to status changes, or define scheduled batch operations for daily/weekly reporting, invoicing runs, or data synchronization.

STEP 7: Test and preview

Run test queries against JobNimbus API, simulate workflow automations, validate data mappings to downstream systems like QuickBooks or Slack, check authentication and rate limit handling, review logs, and ensure error recovery mechanisms work correctly.

STEP 8: Deploy

Deploy your contractor management app with one click, complete with versioning, performance monitoring, error alerts, usage analytics, and automatic scaling. Roll back to previous versions or iterate with new prompts as your business needs evolve.

STEP 9: Expand

Add new capabilities like customer communication portals, crew scheduling optimization, material cost tracking, or revenue forecasting. Connect additional tools like email marketing platforms, document storage, or payment processors without architectural changes.
