Introduction

This document presents an installation and user guide towards a Salesforce Managed packaged app developed and hosted privately on Salesforce.com. If you are interested in Sales Insights in your Salesforce Account, you first have to link your ML Platform account to your Salesforce Instance.

Authorize Salesforce

  1. Click on Integrations in the Setup tab

  3. Click Connect on the Salesforce tile
  4. Choose which Salesforce.com environment you want to connect to
  5. You will be directed to authenticate your SFDC instance with Madison Logic.  You will need to enter your SFDC username and password, and grant permission for Madison Logic to leverage your SFDC data. You must have admin rights in Salesforce in order to integrate it with the ML Platform. 
  6. Once your Salesforce.com is authenticated, click Setup Measurement 

Manage Integration

  1. Choose the SFDC environment you want to integrate Sales Insight.  Please note, even though the images below shows Development selected, make sure you choose Production if you are installing the package for your sales team to utilize.  

  2. Enter the Salesforce Organization ID of the SFDC instance you've selected & click Save. (More information on finding your Salesforce Organization ID can be found here)
  3. The private Madison Logic Salesforce package URL and authentication code can be found once you save the integration setting. Makes sure to copy the Authentication code and hold onto in for a future step.

Package Installation in Salesforce 

  1. Log in to Salesforce in a new window
  2. Click the package link under the Salesforce Package section in MLP to install the package
  3. Enter MadLogicABM into the password field

  4. Select the group of users or user profiles that the package will be installed for and click Install

In some cases, the installation may take more time than expected. In such situations, Salesforce does the installation offline and sends an email to the user post installation. After you receive the email confirmation, follow the steps in our offline installation here rather than the below. 

Package Authentication and Listing

  1. Once the installation is successful, the package will require a shared key for further communication with the ML Platform

  3. If you receive an error message after entering the authentication code, please see the steps under the Troubleshooting section below to resolve the issue (Authentication Code Error)
