Hi all,

I've scoured through the boards to the best of my ability and cannot find a topic that addresses my question.

Basically, I just want to know if it is possible through Web to Lead or some other Salesforce post action to update an existing lead, rather than inserting a new lead, provided I have the existing lead's ID.

I know it is possible through the API, but unfortunately, the company for whom I'm trying to get this to work does not have an Enterprise account. 

While I realize that this level of capability is why the API exists to begin with, it seems like it would be a logical step in the post action of the Web to Lead form to look for an incoming ID value, and if one exists, do an update instead of an insert. 

So, if anyone has a definitive answer, that would help tremendously.

Thanks!
