Save and Activate the Scenario

After configuring Google Groups, Salesforce, and any additional nodes, don’t forget to save the scenario and click "Deploy." Activating the scenario ensures it will run automatically whenever the trigger node receives input or a condition is met. By default, all newly created scenarios are deactivated.

Test the Scenario

Depending on your setup, data should flow between Google Groups and Salesforce (or vice versa). Easily troubleshoot the scenario by reviewing the execution history to identify and fix any issues.

Most powerful ways to connect Google Groups and Salesforce

Google Groups + Salesforce + Slack: When a new post is added to a Google Group, the workflow searches for mentions of a client name. If found, it creates a task in Salesforce and sends a notification to the account manager in Slack.

Salesforce + Google Groups + Gmail: When a new lead is created in Salesforce, the workflow automatically adds them to a specified Google Group and sends them a welcome email via Gmail.
