Can I automate the creation of relationships?
August 11, 2011, 05:05:55 pm
I have individuals who I would like to have a relationship with an organization.  In this case there some 3500 individuals and 300 organizations.  I have identifying numbers and names in custom fields that I could use identify which individual would be in a relationship with what organization but I would really not like to go through all of the individuals and assign them a relationship to the organization.

Yes, you can use the API to automate creation of those relationships. Check:
