V4 - Having trouble integrating Salesforce

Hi

I have read all of the posts on integrating salesforce, but I cannot understand them. Can anyone give me an example of what code goes where? This is for V4. The other posts seems to be a mixture of previous versions.

Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Hi FDigital01,

What information does SalesForce need?

Bob

The code below is from the original html form which worked. I have changed the id values but the structure is correct.

I need to know where I should put the salesforce code into the V4 form.

Thankyou for your help.

Hi FDigital01,

To show how this works here is your code with all the layout HTML removed - just the form inputs remain:

<form action="https://www.salesforce.com/servlet/servlet.WebToLead?encoding=UTF-8" method="POST">
<input type=hidden name="oid" value="00xx0000000xxxx">
<input type="hidden" name="sfga" value="00xx0000000xxxx">
<input type=hidden name="recipient" value="email@sample.com">
<input type=hidden name="subject" value="Enquiry/feedback">
<input type=hidden name="retURL" value="http://www.exampleurl.com">
<input id="first_name" maxlength="40" name="first_name" size="27" type="text" /></td>
<input id="last_name" maxlength="80" name="last_name" size="27" type="text" /></td>
<input id="email" maxlength="80" name="email" size="27" type="text" /></td>
<input id="phone" maxlength="40" name="phone" size="27" type="text" /></td>
<input id="company" maxlength="40" name="company" size="27" type="text" /></td>
<input id="city" maxlength="40" name="city" size="27" type="text" /></td>
<input id="state" maxlength="20" name="state" size="27" type="text" /></td>
<select id="00xx000000xxxx" name="00xx000000xxxx">
<textarea name="00xx000000xxxx" cols="35" rows="5" wrap="soft" id="00xx000000xxxx" type="text"></textarea>
<input id="00xx000000xxxxx" name="00xx000000xxxxx" type="checkbox" value="1" />

Next we'll strip this down again so that just the names and, for the hidden inputs, the values are left:

action="https://www.salesforce.com/servlet/servlet.WebToLead?encoding=UTF-8"
name="oid" value="00xx0000000xxxx"
name="sfga" value="00xx0000000xxxx"
name="recipient" value="email@sample.com"
name="subject" value="Enquiry/feedback"
name="retURL" value="http://www.exampleurl.com"
name="first_name"
name="last_name"
name="email"
name="phone"
name="company"
name="city"
name="state"
name="00xx000000xxx"
name="00xx000000xxxx
name="00xx000000xxxxx"

Next step - remove the quotes and add the form input names from your ChronoForm inside curly brackets - here I'll assume that they are the same as the SalesForce names e.g. first_name.

action=https://www.salesforce.com/servlet/servlet.WebToLead?encoding=UTF-8
oid=00xx0000000xxxx
sfga=00xx0000000xxxx
recipient=email@sample.com
subject=Enquiry/feedback
retURL=http://www.exampleurl.com
first_name={first_name}
last_name={last_name}
email={email}
phone={phone}
company={company}
city={city}
state={state}
00xx000000xxx={00xx000000xxx}
00xx000000xxxx={00xx000000xxxx}
00xx000000xxxxx={00xx000000xxxxx}

The last step is to handle the first line - the action url here. The part up to the ? is the target URL, the query string after the ? needs to be added to the other parameter entries. So we end up with:
Target URL

https://www.salesforce.com/servlet/servlet.WebToLead

Fields/names entries:

encoding=UTF-8
oid=00xx0000000xxxx
sfga=00xx0000000xxxx
recipient=email@sample.com
subject=Enquiry/feedback
retURL=http://www.exampleurl.com
first_name={first_name}
last_name={last_name}
email={email}
phone={phone}
company={company}
city={city}
state={state}
00xx000000xxx={00xx000000xxx}
00xx000000xxxx={00xx000000xxxx}
00xx000000xxxxx={00xx000000xxxxx}

Bob

PS Note to other readers - all the 00xx000000xxx entries here are disguised values - check to see what you need to include here.

I greatly appreciate the time you have taken to show me how the code should be structured and perhaps I am incredibly thick, but I still do not know where to put the code in the form.

For example do I create a text box called first name and in the field name put in {first_name} and for the hidden input create a hidden text box and call the field name {oid} with the default value being the xx00000xx ?

I hope your patience will extend to helping me get this working. Thankyou

Hi FDigital01,

Sorry, use a CURL action (or more likely the customised cURL [GH] action as that handles the mixed values better).

Bob
