The ZoomInfo Salesforce integration works by linking your ZoomInfo and Salesforce accounts at the backend level. This allows seamless data flows between the two platforms. 

Once integrated, users can access ZoomInfo data directly from within Salesforce. For example, when viewing a contact or account record, users can see details like technologies used and intent signals sourced from ZoomInfo. 

Any updates made to records on one platform automatically sync to the other in real time. This ensures data consistency across both systems.

How To Integrate ZoomInfo Into Salesforce?

As a Salesforce development partner, we have performed a lot of Salesforce integrations for clients. 

Here is an overview of the configuration steps involved: 

First, in your ZoomInfo account, connect your Salesforce org and ZoomInfo account in the Integrations settings.

Then, click on the “Manage” button next to Salesforce. This opens the configuration page.  

Under “Export Preferences“, select the objects like Contacts, Accounts, and Leads that you wish to sync between the two platforms. You can set the maximum number of records to export here as well. Select data sync preferences like auto-sync frequency and which objects to sync. 

Next, go to the “Mapping” tab. This allows you to define which ZoomInfo fields sync to which Salesforce fields.

For example, you can map the ZoomInfo “Company” field to the Salesforce “Account Name” field. Review the provided field mappings and make edits as per your requirements. Be sure to verify and save your mappings. With the mappings set, data will automatically flow from ZoomInfo to the corresponding Salesforce fields. 

Following these configuration steps allows seamless data syncing between platforms. You can customize both what objects sync and the field mappings as per your specific needs.
