Syncing Community Data to Salesforce

One of the features of the integration is the ability to gain a deeper understanding of community engagement by viewing community member details, activity, and posts directly within Salesforce. This is made possible by the creation of three custom objects - Community Member, Community Member Activity, and Community Post - into which community data is exported and kept up-to-date on an hourly basis.

Access to these objects in Salesforce requires admin privileges. If you do not have admin access, please contact your Salesforce administrator for assistance.
