Enabling Blackbaud SKY

When you initially connect with our team, we'll provide you with directions for initiating the setup process. Please be sure to start the process by connecting with our team first. After some initial setup, you'll be enabling SKY in Finalsite Enrollment. Here's how to do that.

Important, not everyone has access to the required pages:

In Finalsite Enrollment

You must be a System Admin or Admin with Data Permissions to access the enablement pages.

In Blackbaud

You must have the Marketplace Admin permission level as well as access to the appropriate product.

Step 1

In Finalsite Enrollment, navigate to Settings > Fields & Data > Blackbaud SKY Configuration.

Follow the instructions on the screen.

Step 2

When you select Install Plugin, you'll be brought to a screen that will ask you to make a selection.

In the From section of the screen, you'll select which environment to install the plugin into.
Once you make that selection, choose the Authorize button at the bottom to confirm and continue.

This will install the plugin into your application and allow us to both pull and push data with the integration.

After finishing those enabling steps, please let our team know and we can proceed with the final setup steps from our end.
