How to use the Salesforce Installer Package


The Salesforce installer app lets you configure your Salesforce instance for connecting with Zuddl easily and conveniently.
The installer app performs the following actions on your behalf:
  1. Creates attended and registered statuses automatically whenever a new campaign is created.
  2. Creates fields that will be used to pass activity data of attendees after the event.
This method of installation is recommended for first-time users who have not previously configured their Salesforce app for Zuddl. If you wish to configure it manually, refer to the integration guide.

Integration

The integration involves three major steps:
  1. Install app
  2. Configure Campaign Layout
  3. Configure Campaign Member Layout

Install app

  1. Install the Salesforce installer package.

  2. On the “What if existing component names conflict with ones in this package?”, select the Do not install option.

    Similarly, if you have previously configured the integration manually, installing the package may result in conflicts and eventually loss of data as ‘Renaming conflicting components in package’ is not supported for unlisted apps.

  3. Select the user profile you wish to grant access to this installer package.

    If any special user profiles have been created, ensure that the same is accounted for in this selection.

  5. After the installation is complete, click Done.

Now you must edit the page layouts for Campaign and Campaign Member objects for desired user profiles.

Configure Campaign Layout

  1. Now, you can edit page layout assignments for the default Campaigns view such that a particular user profile can view the Zuddl Campaign Layout. Go to Object Manager > Campaign.

  3. Click Edit Assignment.
  4. Select ‘Zuddl Campaign Layout’ in the Page Layout To Use dropdown.

  5. Select the users to whom the page details should be shown. In this case, we selected Standard User and System Administrator.

    Note: The Zuddl Campaign Layout includes all the components of the default Campaign layout in Salesforce.

  6. Click Save. This saves the layout view for the selected users.

Now, the assigned user profiles can view the Zuddl campaign layout components in their Marketing or Sales app as shown below.

Now, you need to configure the layout for campaign members.

Configure Campaign Member Layout (Optional step)

  1. Now, you can edit page layout assignments for campaign members such that a particular user profile could view the Zuddl Campaign Layout. Go to Object Manager > Campaign.

Configure Objects Manually

If you wish to use the default campaign layout, you can add it using the Page Layout tool for the default Campaign Layout (under the Related List property). The Zuddl statuses will start showing up automatically.

Similarly, you can add Zuddl activity fields to the default campaign member view using the page layout tool (under Fields property) as shown below:
