Add Salesforce Integration Account in Bright Pattern

Now that your call center and connected app are configured in Salesforce, you can create the integration account that establishes the connection between Salesforce and Bright Pattern Contact Center. New integration accounts are added in the Contact Center Administrator application. For more information, see the Contact Center Administrator Guide section Integration Accounts.

1. Create new integration account

In Contact Center Administrator application, go to Configuration > Call Center Configuration > Integration Accounts and click + to add a new account of type Salesforce.com.

Select "Salesforce.com" as the integration account type


2. Edit properties

Salesforce.com integration account properties


Basic Properties

  • Type - By default, "Salesforce.com" because you selected this type of integration account to add
  • Name - The name of the account (any name)
  • Default account - Select this checkbox if you have multiple Salesforce integration accounts and you want this account to be used by default.
  • Url - The URL of your registered domain on Salesforce where your users will sign in to your instance. The URL should be in the following format: https://<your-domain-name>.my.salesforce.com/


Data Access from Scenarios Properties

In the Data Access from Scenarios section, set:

  • Sandbox environment - Select checkbox if your Saleforce environment is a sandbox
  • Consumer key - The consumer key of the Connected App you previously configured in Salesforce. You can find your Connected App's consumer key in Salesforce Lightning Setup in Security > Certificate and Key Management.
  • Consumer secret - The consumer secret of the Connected App you previously configured in Salesforce. You can find your Connected App's consumer secret in Salesforce Lightning Setup in Security > Certificate and Key Management.
  • Refresh token - Click Request token to allow access to your Salesforce Connected App
  • Check limits - You can use the Check limits button to see the SFDC limits associated with this account.


Single Sign-on Properties

In this section, you will enable single sign-on (SSO) functionality for Salesforce integration. SSO provides simultaneous login to Bright Pattern Contact Center applications and the embedded Agent Desktop widget on Salesforce. For example, users who log in to the Agent Desktop widget on Salesforce will find themselves also logged in to Bright Pattern applications (e.g., Agent Desktop, Contact Center Administrator, etc.).


Identity provider certificate

Provide the Salesforce Identity Provider Certificate (see instructions below). If you do not plan on configuring SSO, leave the certificate empty.

How to Add the Certificate

Before you can add the certificate, you have to ensure that there is one. In case you have multiple certificates, you must choose the certificate you want to use as the Identity Provider Certificate on the App Settings page.

  1. In Salesforce Lightning Setup, go to Security > Certificate and Key Management.

  2. If there are no certificates listed, or your certificate is expired, either create a new one or import a certificate from your setup.

    1. To import, click the Import from Keystore button. Any certificates you import will be shown in the Idp Certificate field on the Connected App Detail page. Note that if you have multiple certificates, you must choose the certificate you want to use as the Idp Certificate on the Connected App Detail page.
