2. How to send insights to Salesforce
Once Salesforce is connected, you can send meeting insights from Sally to Salesforce with a single click — so they land on the right record.
You can:
2.1. Create a note in Salesforce
Attach a meeting insight as a note on the appropriate Salesforce record.
-
Open the desired meeting in Sally.
-
Hover any insight, decision, next step, or task in the summary. Click the Salesforce icon, then choose "Create note in Salesforce".
Figure 5: Choose the Salesforce action -
Fill in the creation form (required fields are marked with
*). Typically:- Responsible user*
- Status*
- Due date (optional)
- Priority (optional)
- Connected Lead / Account / Contact / Opportunity / Case (link the task to exactly one record)
- Click Create to send it to Salesforce.
Choose the record that best represents where follow-up will happen (e.g., the active Opportunity rather than a generic Account) to keep pipelines clean and reporting accurate.
2.2. Create a task in Salesforce
Turn a Sally insight into an actionable Salesforce task.
-
Open the desired meeting in Sally.
-
Hover the relevant item, click the Salesforce icon, and choose Create task in Salesforce.
Figure 6: Choose the Salesforce action -
Fill in the creation form (required fields are marked with
*). Typically:- Responsible user*
- Status*
- Due date (optional)
- Priority (optional)
- Connected Lead / Account / Contact / Opportunity / Case (link the task to exactly one record)
- Click Create to send it to Salesforce.
You must link the task to a single Salesforce record (Lead, Account, Contact, Opportunity, or Case) so it shows up in the right place for your team.
2.3. Create an event in Salesforce
Log a calendar event in Salesforce to reflect the meeting outcome or a scheduled follow-up.
-
Open the desired meeting in Sally.
-
Hover the relevant item, click the Salesforce icon, and choose Create event in Salesforce.
Figure 8: Choose the Salesforce action -
Fill in the creation form (required fields are marked with
*). Typically:- Responsible user*
- Status*
- Due date (optional)
- Priority (optional)
- Connected Lead / Account / Contact / Opportunity / Case (link the task to exactly one record)
- Click Create to send it to Salesforce.
Use events for time-bound follow-ups (demos, check-ins) and tasks for to-dos without a fixed slot. Always link to the active Opportunity to keep deal timelines complete.
3. Required OAuth Scopes
For the integration with Salesforce, Sally uses OAuth 2.0 for authorization. The following scopes define which areas Sally can access on behalf of the authenticated user.
-
Sally accesses this information solely to technically establish and maintain the connection to the user account.
-
Sally does not make any autonomous changes. Actions are performed exclusively upon the explicit initiative of the user.
-
API endpoints are only called within the scope of an active action initiated by the user within the platform.
Technical Overview of Required Scopes
| Scope | What Salesforce technically allows with this scope | How Sally uses this scope |
|---|---|---|
id | Access to the unique user ID | Sally reads the user ID to properly authenticate the connected account. |
profile | Access to basic profile information | Sally reads basic profile data to identify the connected account. No profile data is modified. |
email | Access to the user’s email address | Sally reads the email address to uniquely identify the connected account. |
address | Access to stored address information | Part of Salesforce’s identity model. Sally does not modify address data. |
phone | Access to stored phone numbers | Part of identity-related information. Sally does not modify phone numbers. |
api | General API access according to user permissions | Technically required for integrations via the Salesforce API. Sally uses this access strictly within the defined integration functions. |
full | Full API access according to user permissions | Part of Salesforce’s OAuth integration model. Sally does not perform independent CRM actions outside explicitly user-initiated functions. |
refresh_token | Token renewal capability | Allows the connection to be maintained without requiring repeated login. |
offline_access | Issuance of long-lived access tokens | Ensures a stable, ongoing connection. No Salesforce data is modified. |
openid | OpenID Connect authentication | Secure authentication via Salesforce Identity services. |
