Dialpad AI + Salesforce

Dialpad for Salesforce brings AI-powered workflows, powerful native calling, and real-time AI-powered customer intelligence to Salesforce so your team can focus on driving more sales and improving customer satisfaction.

Let's dig into the details of how your favorite Dialpad AI features integrate with Salesforce.

Supported AI fields

No manual activity tracking — Dialpad does it for you. Amongst other things, AI Recaps and Action Items are logged to your inbound and outbound calls, ensuring important follow-ups are not forgotten and additional meetings are scheduled when needed.  The call's AI Outcome and Call Purpose tags are also logged to your calls, making it easy to find specific calls and clients. If you're using AI CSAT, or AI Playbooks, you'll also see the rep's adherence to your AI Playbook, and the call's AI CSAT score.

Let's look at at which AI features are logged to, and supported in Salesforce.

Note

AI Summaries and Action Items will not initially appear in your Tasks as their format (Rich Text) is not a traditionally supported Task field. They'll only appear in Tasks once the Dialpad AI section has been added in the Lightning Editor.

Call Tasks are created and stored in Salesforce, not Dialpad.  As Dialpad does not keep these records, we cannot backfill previous calls.

Your existing task fields can be mapped to AI Call Purpose, AI CSAT, AI Outcome, and AI Playbook adherence.
