Flow: Salesforce

This node is used to capture end customer inputs into Salesforce objects. Currently this node supports operations on Lead and Case objects.

For example, customers can conduct offline campaigns and capture customer interests (sent via SMS) in Salesforce, through IMIconnect. When a response is received in IMIconnect, the rule invokes flow and triggers appropriate action such as update/insert data in Salesforce.
