Setup Instructions:

Before you start upgrading and installing this new version, you will need to access the correct instructions articles based on the version that your Salesforce instance is using. We did our best to accommodate your current instance to provide and guide you to a smooth transition to the newest and latest version.

You will need the following information with you to see which article to view and follow:

  • Is your instance mainly using Salesforce Classic or Salesforce Lightning version? If you're using both versions, choose the one you're most comfortable with.
  • Have you ever installed the Influitive Salesforce AppExchange package before?
  • What Influitive Salesforce AdvocateHub AppExchange version do you currently have installed?

Please follow the table below to find your setup article:
