Set up Salesforce Inbox for recruiting

Use flair Inbox, flair's custom Salesforce Inbox pane, to connect recruiting emails and calendar events with candidate records in Salesforce.

Who can use this?

Recruiters in Salesforce with the Salesforce extension for Gmail or Microsoft Outlook. A Salesforce Admin enables the email integration.

Before you begin

Enable the email integration

  1. In Salesforce Setup, enter Gmail Integration and Sync or Outlook Integration and Sync in Quick Find.
  2. Open the matching integration page.

Log a calendar event

  2. In the Salesforce extension, select Create Event.
