Create a Salesforce case from a conversation
Once your administrator sets up your connection, you can create a case in Salesforce from a conversation in Inbox 2.0. This connects the conversation in Inbox with a case in Salesforce and allows your agents to continue messaging or actioning on the conversation from either Inbox 2.0 or Salesforce.
- Go to Inbox 2.0, and then open a conversation.
- Go to the beginning of any conversation, select Conversation actions, and then select Send to Salesforce to create a new Salesforce case using the currently open conversation. Inbox includes the conversation history and attachments in the case.
