How to Connect Jobber to Sparkforge

By Sparkforge Support Team ·Last reviewed May 3, 2026

The Jobber integration syncs clients between Jobber and Sparkforge two ways and ships with a prebuilt snapshot. Agency Admins install at the agency level and deploy to sub-accounts, then each sub-account connects its Jobber account.

The Jobber integration links field-service operations in Jobber with sales and marketing in Sparkforge. Client and contact data stays aligned on both sides, so teams run jobs in Jobber and automate communications in Sparkforge without retyping anything.

What the integration does

Two-way client sync — names, emails, phones, addresses, and more stay consistent.
Reliable matching — linkage by Jobber client ID prevents duplicates when emails or phones change.
Historic plus live sync — import past clients from a chosen date, then keep new clients flowing automatically.
Snapshot included — prebuilt workflows and message templates speed launch.
Marketing and ops alignment — Jobber runs jobs, Sparkforge runs funnels, CRM, and automation.

Setup overview

The app is visible only to Agency Admins. Sub-accounts can't see or install it until the agency installs it first.

Step 1: Agency-level install and bulk deploy

In the Agency view, open App Marketplace.
Search for Jobber.
Open the Jobber integration app and click Install.
Pick the sub-accounts to deploy to and click Proceed.
Select the snapshot assets you want to push or update.
Choose Proceed without conflict check or Proceed to check conflicts.
If checking conflicts, expand each sub-account, review conflicts, and choose which assets to overwrite.
Click Proceed, type Confirm, and click Proceed again.
Click Allow & Install.

Step 2: Sub-account connection

Switch to the sub-account.
Open App Marketplace → Installed Apps → Jobber.
Click Connect and complete the authorization flow.

FAQ

Can I connect more than one sub-account to the same Jobber account?

No. Jobber supports one active connection per account, so one Sparkforge sub-account per Jobber account.

How long does the initial sync take?

Jobber syncs roughly 2,500 records every 5 minutes. The total time depends on your historic start date.

Which fields sync between platforms?

First Name, Last Name, Email, Phone Number, Address, Lead Source, Jobber Client URL, Jobber Created Date, and Tags.

What doesn't sync?

Custom fields on Jobber, notes, and attachments do not sync.

How does Sparkforge match clients to contacts?

By the Jobber client's unique ID, so updates to email or phone don't break the link.

Can I pause or stop the two-way sync?

There's no pause toggle. Disconnect from Jobber App Marketplace → Connected Apps → Sparkforge App → Disconnect to stop the sync.

Can I change the historic start date later?

No. Historic sync runs once. After that, you can't pick a new start date and reimport.

Are sync logs available?

Not currently.

Frequently Asked Questions

Can I connect multiple sub-accounts to one Jobber account?

No. Jobber only supports one active connection per account, which means a single Sparkforge sub-account per Jobber account.

How long does the initial client sync take?

Jobber syncs about 2,500 records every 5 minutes. Total sync time depends on the historic start date you select for backfilling clients.

Which fields sync between Sparkforge and Jobber?

First Name, Last Name, Email, Phone Number, Address, Lead Source, Jobber Client URL, Jobber Created Date, and Tags. Custom fields, notes, and attachments do not sync.

How are clients matched to contacts?

Sparkforge uses the Jobber client's unique ID for matching. That keeps the sync intact even if the email or phone number changes on either side.

Can I change the historic sync start date later?

No. Historic data sync runs once at setup. You can't reinitiate from a different start date once the initial backfill has completed.
