Create Salesforce Records with SnapForms

Create new records for standard and custom Salesforce objects from Outlook with SnapForms. LinkPoint Connect automatically detects the user’s Salesforce objects and provides access to SnapForms for those objects. SnapForms display the fields for the object as they appear in the user’s instance of Salesforce and support required and dependent fields. Where applicable, SnapForms present the record types available for an object in a drop-down list.

Additional Resources: Users can change the Salesforce objects available as SnapForms in the Preferences Pane. Refer to the Edit Preferences section of this User Guide for more information.
