How do I set up users in Salesforce so that they can perform

...

Vonage Contact Center-related tasks?

To use NewVoiceMedia Vonage Contact Center in Salesforce, you must create users in both NewVoiceMedia Vonage Contact Center and Salesforce. We recommend that you read through the following information before creating your users.

...

  • Agents
    • Make calls
    • Receive calls
    • Log calls (including taking notes)
  • Supervisors
  • A single API user
    • Read all Salesforce data
    • Write NewVoiceMedia Vonage Contact Center data to Salesforce
    Info
    NewVoiceMedia Vonage Contact Center uses the API user account to read and write data on your NewVoiceMedia Vonage Contact Center account's behalf. For example, if you have a Data Connector applet configured to retrieve Salesforce data, NewVoiceMedia Vonage will use the API user's permissions to perform this task.

When you have created your users, you must assign appropriate permissions. For informaiton information about these settings, see 911475798the Permissions sets (all users) section later in this page. You must also perform some additional tasks for agents and apply additional settings to the API user.

Permission sets (all users)

To enable users to perform the appropriate NewVoiceMediaVonage Contact Center-related tasks for their type in Salesforce, you must assign appropriate permissions to the users. We recommend assigning the following permission sets to the users.

...

  • User-type permission sets

    The NewVoiceMedia Vonage Contact Center package contains a permission set for each of the user types. Assign the following permission sets to your users:

    For information about the settings in the provided permission sets, see Vonage Contact Center user permission sets.

  • A new custom permission set

    Due to limitations with Salesforce packaging, the NewVoiceMedia Vonage Contact Center package cannot include a permission set giving the required access to standard Salesforce objects. You may also have custom fields to which all users need access, such as additional fields in the Log a Call area and disposition code fields.

    Create a new custom permission set that includes access to the following standard fields on the Task object:

    Insert excerpt
    _ExcerptSFUserPermissions
    _ExcerptSFUserPermissions
    nopaneltrue

    Optionally, add access to any custom fields that all users need access to, such as additional fields in the Log a Call area and disposition codes.

    Assign this custom permission set to all your NewVoiceMedia Vonage Contact Center users in Salesforce.

For information about applying permission sets, see Assign Permission Sets to a Single User (Salesforce help) and Assign a Permission Set to Multiple Users (Salesforce help).

Additional steps (agents only)

To enable a user to use NewVoiceMedia Vonage Contact Center in Salesforce as an agent, you must perform some additional tasks. For information about these tasks, see Setting up Vonage Contact Center agents in Salesforce.

...

Your API user also requires:

  • A Salesforce Integration license

    Note

    We do not recommend that your agent uses a Salesforce Platform license. Some features may not work with this license.


  • Unrestricted login hours
  • Unrestricted IP addresses
  • The following permissions:
    • The Edit Tasks permission.
    • If you need to query users, your API user needs the View All Users permission.
    • If your org uses a Private sharing model, your API user needs the View All Data permission.
    • If you use the Data Connector applet to insert records in Salesforce, your API user needs the Modify All Data permission.

Vonage Contact Center users

For information about creating NewVoiceMedia Vonage Contact Center users, see User Admin.

If you already have your Salesforce users but do not yet have NewVoiceMedia Vonage Contact Center users, you can create NewVoiceMedia Vonage Contact Center users from your Salesforce users.
