How to Reference Custom Object data to Validate data and update on Person

Hello folks,

 

I have a Custom Object that has some information stored say a list of 100 approved campuses across USA.

 

What I want to do is:

When a Person is created, perform a check across this Custom Object and check if the Campus selected on the Person record exists in this Custom object, and if it exists update a custom field (text/string) on Person object.

 

Anyway to achieve this using the point & click features of Marketo. Thanks!

There's no way to do this using "point and click" features of Marketo, no.

Hey Sanford, Thanks for your reply.

 

In that case, do you have any suggestions to share on how to achieve this, maybe using development (code) of some kind?

The overall feasibility depends on your load, i.e. how many such lookups you'll be doing in a day. How many Persons would you be processing (and how can you be sure of that cap)?
