Leverly – Salesforce Integration
Leverly is a highly flexible automated system. It can be integrated with any CRM system that can send a real-time HTTP GET or POST to Leverly servers. To integrate Salesforce CRM, the following steps must be taken:
- You must have the Enterprise Level license. The Enterprise level comes with a feature called workflow rules which is the component that allows for posting real-time information to third parties. If you do not have the Enterprise Level license and do not want to upgrade, you also have the option of buying this feature a la carte. Please contact your Salesforce rep for more information.
- Create a Custom Field. You will need to create a custom field for your Leverly unique account ID. This account ID field will be passed to Leverly with every lead.
- Create a Workflow Rule. This rule will trigger an outbound SOAP XML message to our servers when certain criteria are met. For example, when a new unique lead is added to Salesforce, the workflow rule will trigger the outbound message to Leverly.
Creating a custom field and setting up a workflow rule is simple. Here are step-by-step instructions. Please send these instructions to your IT team.
