Limitations and other considerations
Here are a few things you should keep in mind when using this integration:
-
Contacts can only be synced from Salesforce to other tools: Note that you won't be able to create new contacts in Salesforce from other tools; you can only create new work items in other tools. That said, any updates made in one tool can be synced to the other, in both directions.
-
No contact merging: If two contacts are too similar, you might find duplicate contacts created in your lists.
-
Using the workflow designer: If you create your flow through the workflow designer, you won't be able to choose to sync Salesforce contacts. Make sure you create your flow from the flow list.
