    Article Summary

    Dialpad Salesforce1 integration allows calls from the Salesforce mobile app to be routed to the Dialpad app, keeping business calls on one platform and automatically logging them to Contacts or Leads. To use this integration, the Dialpad mobile app must be installed. For Salesforce Classic users, administrators need to install the Dialpad for Salesforce app through the web and add Dialpad to the Page Layouts of desired objects such as Leads or Contacts. The Dialpad Call action should be added to the Salesforce1 Lightning Actions section in the desired order. The same steps apply for Salesforce Lightning users, with the addition of using Quick Find to navigate to the Object Manager.

    With Dialpad + Salesforce1, calls from your Salesforce mobile app can be routed to your Dialpad app, allowing you to keep your team's business calls on one platform while automatically logging to their Contacts or Leads.

    Let's go over the details of this integration.

    Who can use this feature
    Dialpad's integration with Salesforce Lightning is available to Dialpad Ai Voice, Ai Sales, and Contact Center customers on the Pro and Enterprise plans.
    This integration is available for Salesforce Classic and Salesforce Lightning Users. 

    Please note, you will need to have installed the Dialpad mobile app onto your device to utilize this integration.

    Requirements 

    To use Dialpad and Salesforce1, you'll need to:

    • Install the Dialpad mobile app
    • Ensure you have the latest Salesforce package
      • We're currently on packageV1.760

    Salesforce Classic 

    Salesforce Administrators will need to follow these steps to integrate Dialpad within Salesforce1 for their Salesforce Classic users:

    • Install the Dialpad for Salesforce app through the web (if you're restricting access to specific users or profiles, make sure the desired users have access to the various new components for this package)

    • For any objects that you want users to be able to initiate Dialpad calls from, add Dialpad to the Page Layouts.

      Ex: If you want users to start a Dialpad call from Lead, follow these steps:

      • Log into Salesforce as an Administrator, click on Setup in the top right corner
      • In the Quick Find search field, type Page Layouts
      • Scroll down to the left-hand panel and click on the Page Layouts link under Leads

    • Drag and drop the Dialpad Call action into the Salesforce1 & Lightning Actions section. The order of the actions here determines how they will appear in the Quick Action bar, so we recommend placing Dialpad Call towards the beginning of the list
