New to automation with Zapier? You're not alone. Here are some answers to common questions about how Zapier works with Salesforce and Motion

Can I automatically create a task in Motion when I close a deal in Salesforce?

Is it possible to sync calendars between Salesforce and Motion?

While direct calendar synchronization isn’t available, you can create events in one system based on triggers from the other. For example, setting an event completion in Motion can trigger creating or updating an event record in Salesforce.

What types of data can be transferred from Salesforce to Motion?

Our integration supports transferring customer information, deal details, and task specifics from Salesforce to Motion based on pre-defined triggers like new entries or status updates.

Can I set up automated reminders for my team using the integration?

Yes, by using triggers for upcoming deadlines or task completions in either system, we can set up automated reminder actions that notify team members through their preferred channels.

Practical ways you can use Salesforce and Motion

Track lead generation efficiently

When a new lead is created in Salesforce, Zapier updates your Motion project to align your team's tasks around the new opportunity. This ensures prompt action on leads and better resource allocation, improving conversion rates.

Business Owner
Stay updated on sales impact on project timelines

Whenever a Salesforce opportunity stage is changed, Zapier links this update with Motion to adjust relevant project timelines. This integration keeps project managers informed and helps them align team efforts with changing priorities.

Project Management
Optimize scheduling by creating tasks for closed deals

When an opportunity is closed in Salesforce, Zapier automatically creates a new task in Motion to prioritize post-deal activities. This integration ensures actions like follow-ups or handoffs don't slip through the cracks, saving time and improving team coordination.
