Salesforce is available on request in the Binom dashboard: Integrations → More integrations → Salesforce. ## What Binom can do in Salesforce Here, Binom refers to your AI employee. After you connect Salesforce, it calls the service's actions when a conversation needs that data. You decide which actions are available to it. In the dashboard, each action is labeled: **read** (Binom only views data), **write**, or **delete** (Binom changes or deletes data in Salesforce). | Section | What Binom can view | What Binom can change | | --- | --- | --- | | Leads and contacts | Leads, contacts, accounts, search, history | Create and update | | Deals | Deals, products in a deal, stages, forecast | Create and update | | Cases | Cases, comments, statuses | Create, update, comment | | Knowledge base | Knowledge base articles, solutions | Attach a solution to a case | | Activities | Tasks, events, overdue tasks | Task, meeting, complete task | | Orders and price books | Orders, line items, price books, prices | Create and update | | Field service | Work orders, service visits, technicians | Create a work order and visit, assign a technician | ## Can the chatbot create a lead in Salesforce? Yes. Binom searches for the person among leads ("Search Leads") and contacts ("Search Contacts") and, if they are not there, creates a lead ("Create Lead"). ## Customer case and knowledge base answer Binom searches for an answer in the knowledge base ("Search Knowledge Articles"). If the question requires an employee, it opens a case ("Create Case") and later reports its status ("Get Case"). ## Meeting and task for the manager Binom schedules a meeting ("Schedule Meeting") and creates a task ("Create Task") based on the conversation. ## What access you will need Connection method: sign-in via OAuth 2.0 (you log in to your service account and confirm access). You will need an External Client App in Salesforce. Details for each method are shown in the "Authentication" block on the Salesforce page in the dashboard. ## How to get the Salesforce integration Salesforce is available on request: first, the Binom team sets up the integration for your account. General catalog rules are described in the instructions [how to connect a service from "More integrations"](https://binomai.com/faq/connect-service-to-chatbot/). 1. Open [Integrations → More integrations](https://app.binomai.com/cabinet/binom/integrations?tab=14), enter "Salesforce" in the "Search integrations" field, and open the Salesforce card. 2. The "Salesforce integration for assistant" page shows the message "Integration is available on request. Request it now, and we will set it up for you as a priority." The assistant here is your Binom. The "Authentication" block shows what access will be needed, and the "Actions" list shows everything Binom can do in Salesforce. 3. Click "Request integration". The message "Request sent. You will get a notification when the integration is available." appears, and the button changes to "Requested". 4. A Binom setup specialist will contact you. When the integration is ready, a "Connect" button will appear on the Salesforce page. 5. Click "Connect", complete the steps in the "Connect Salesforce" window, and click "Done". After "Connecting...", the status will change to "Connected". If you see "Confirmation has not arrived yet. The connection may still complete: check again in a minute.", click "Check again". ## How to choose what Binom can do in Salesforce A connected integration does nothing until you allow actions. The dashboard states this clearly: "Select the actions the assistant may call. Until you select something, it has access to none of them." 1. On the Salesforce page, check the actions you need in the "Actions" list. The "Filter actions" field helps you find them by name. The counter shows how many are selected. 2. Check the "Ask before changing data" toggle. It is on by default: before a write or delete action, Binom will describe what it is about to do and wait for your response. 3. Click "Save". The message "Allowed actions saved" confirms your changes. To get started, "Search Leads", "Create Lead", "Create Case", and "Search Knowledge Articles" are enough. Add update and delete actions when you are ready to let Binom make changes in Salesforce. ## How to check that the integration works - Start a new conversation with your Binom, for example through a [public chat link](https://binomai.com/faq/public-chat-link/), and leave test contact details. Check the lead in Salesforce. - Delete the test lead after checking. ## Possible issues ### Binom does not use Salesforce data in its answers **What to check:** the Salesforce status is "Connected" and the required actions are selected (for example "Create Lead"). **What to do:** select the actions and click "Save". **How to tell it is resolved:** the message "Allowed actions saved" appears, and in a new conversation Binom answers using Salesforce data. ### "Could not save the request. Please try again." **What to do:** click "Request integration" again. If the message keeps appearing, write to support@binomai.com with the name of your Binom and the integration (Salesforce). **How to tell it is resolved:** the button shows "Requested". ### "Integration temporarily unavailable: your request has been saved." Nothing else is needed: your request is saved, and you will get a notification when Salesforce can be connected. ### "Reconnect needed" **What this means:** "The service no longer accepts saved access details, so the assistant can't use them." **What to do:** open the Salesforce page on [More integrations](https://app.binomai.com/cabinet/binom/integrations?tab=14), click "Reconnect", and go through the connection window again. **How to tell it's fixed:** the status shows "Connected". ### "Couldn't start the connection. Please try again." **What to do:** click "Connect" again. If the message keeps appearing, email support@binomai.com with the name of your Binom, the integration (Salesforce), and a screenshot of the message. **How to tell it's fixed:** the "Connect Salesforce" window opens. ### "On a paid plan" instead of the connect button The page will show "Available on a paid plan. Tell us what you need, and we'll let you know when it launches." For details on what each plan includes, see the [plans and subscription pricing](https://app.binomai.com/plans) page. To learn how to change your plan, read the guide [how to change or upgrade your plan](https://binomai.com/faq/change-subscription-plan/). After changing your plan, return to [More integrations](https://app.binomai.com/cabinet/binom/integrations?tab=14) and open Salesforce again. ### "You don't have permission to manage this section." **What this means:** only users with the Owner or Admin access level can manage integrations. **What to do:** ask the account owner to give you the Admin access level or to connect Salesforce themselves. For more information, see [access levels for your team](https://binomai.com/faq/kak-raspredelit-obyazannosti-v-komande-s-pomoshhyu-pyati-urovnej-dostupa-owner-admin-editor-operator-viewer/). **How to tell it's fixed:** after refreshing the page, the integration settings open. If the problem persists, email support@binomai.com or send "I want to talk to a person" in the [Binom Tutor](https://app.binomai.com/cabinet/binom/binom-tutor-stream) chat. Include the name of your Binom, the integration, and a screenshot of the message. ## How to disconnect Salesforce On the Salesforce page, click "Disconnect". The "Disconnect Salesforce?" window will show a warning: "The assistant will lose access to the service. To restore it, you'll need to connect the integration again and re-enter the access details." Confirm, and "Integration disconnected" will appear. ## Other common questions ### Can Binom create a deal in Salesforce? Yes, using the "Create Opportunity" action. ### Do I need a developer to set up the Salesforce integration? No. You request Salesforce in [Integrations → More integrations](https://app.binomai.com/cabinet/binom/integrations?tab=14), the Binom team sets up the integration, and then you connect the account yourself and choose the actions. ## What's next - [How to connect a CRM to Binom](https://binomai.com/faq/how-to-connect-the-crm/) - [Salesloft integration](https://binomai.com/integrations/salesloft-integration/) - [ZoomInfo integration: company data](https://binomai.com/integrations/zoominfo-integration/)
