Non-Admin: Connect your Mixmax account to Salesforce
Contents
Connecting to Salesforce
On the Growth and Enterprise plans you can connect Mixmax directly to Salesforce using the Salesforce API.
Please note that to connect to the Salesforce API your Salesforce Edition must include API access. This Salesforce help article has a list of the editions for which API access is enabled by default. If you have Salesforce Enterprise, you're set. If you have Salesforce Professional, you'll need API access as an add-on. Force.com accounts do not include the necessary API permissions.
Mixmax does not require any custom objects or custom fields in order to connect to Salesforce.
To connect your personal Mixmax account to Salesforce, navigate to your Personal Integration Settings here.
Locate the Integration option for Salesforce account and click the option to connect. You'll be prompted to log in to Salesforce.
NOTE: Non-admins users will not be able to connect to Salesforce until their Workspace Admin connects a Sync User.
Once a Sync User is set up, non-admin users will see the "Connect to Salesforce" button available.
Syncing Activity to Salesforce
If your workspace admin has configured your Role settings for Salesforce, you will see your messages, calendar events and analytics to the associated contact, lead, or opportunity within Salesforce.
