Connect your videoask to Salesforce

If you'd like more ways for your team to track and manage the leads you generate with VideoAsk, you can send responses directly to Salesforce.

This integration allows you to map steps of your videoask to fields within Salesforce. This means any response to a videoask can be associated with a lead or contact in Salesforce.

Note: A Salesforce plan with API access is required. Check out this article from Salesforce to see which plans include API access.

Setup the integration

1

From your VideoAsk account, select the videoask you want to connect to Salesforce. Click the plug icon to Connect to other apps.

To update which fields are mapped, click Disconnect and repeat the above connection process.

Note: It is currently not possible to map a videoask title to a field in Salesforce.

View responses in Salesforce

Depending on the Object you have selected and fields you have mapped, videoask response data will appear in different locations within your Salesforce account.

For example: When Contact is selected as the Object and the contact name, email, and an NPS® answer fields mapped, these results can be found in Contact Details within Salesforce.
