Practical ways you can use OneDrive and Salesforce
Track newly created folders in Salesforce
When a new folder is created in OneDrive to share files or resources, Zapier logs this event as a new record in Salesforce. This ensures business owners can keep all shared file activities organized and connected to relevant customer or internal records. It improves visibility and saves the time spent manually recording this data.
Business Owner
Automatically update records for shared files
When a new file is shared in OneDrive, Zapier updates a corresponding record in Salesforce to reflect the latest file details. This process saves time and avoids errors in manually maintaining accurate file references across systems, ensuring streamlined data and system consistency.
ITAttach shared files to project records
When a new shared file is added to a specific folder in OneDrive, Zapier automatically attaches it to the corresponding project record in Salesforce. This ensures project information and resources remain updated and accessible from one central location, improving collaboration and reducing errors.
Project ManagementSupported triggers and actions
