Mappings Page

Purpose ​

The Mappings page is where you configure how Givebutter campaigns and Square (type and locations) map to LGL funds and campaigns. No code deploy is needed for mapping changes; they are stored in the database and used on the next sync.

What You Can Configure ​

Givebutter ​

  • Type defaults – Default LGL fund (and optionally campaign, gift type, payment type) per Givebutter transaction type (e.g. donation, ticket, peer_to_peer).
  • Campaign overrides – For a specific Givebutter campaign (by ID or name), override the type default and set a specific LGL fund. Campaign list is cached from Givebutter; use refresh to update.

Square ​

  • Square type default – Default LGL fund (and optionally campaign) for all Square orders when no location override applies.
  • Location overrides – Map each Square location (by location_id) to an LGL fund. Used when you have multiple Square locations and want different funds per location.

UI Overview ​

  • Tabs or sections for Givebutter vs Square (or type defaults vs overrides).
  • Dropdowns for LGL fund (and campaign, gift type, payment type where supported). Data comes from LGL API; refresh from Settings if needed.
  • Add / Edit / Delete for campaign overrides and location overrides.
  • Refresh – Reload Givebutter campaign list from API so new campaigns appear in the override dropdown.

API ​

  • GET /api/mappings/types – Type defaults (Givebutter and Square).
  • PATCH /api/mappings/types/:type – Update type default for a given type.
  • GET /api/mappings/overrides – Campaign overrides (Givebutter) and possibly Square overrides.
  • POST /api/mappings/overrides – Create or update override (body includes source, campaign_id or location_id, fund_id, etc.).
  • DELETE /api/mappings/overrides/:id – Delete an override by ID.
  • GET /api/square/location-overrides, PUT /api/square/location-overrides – Square location overrides specifically.

Access requires admin or super_admin.

LGL Reference Data ​

Fund and campaign dropdowns use data from LGL. If you add a new fund in LGL, run Settings → Refresh LGL reference data (or equivalent) so it appears in Mappings.
