Option 1: Configure Salesforce to send mail through Gmail/ Office 365 and archive on Vaultastic

Overview

This method is applicable if the domain configured to send out mail on Salesforce is hosted on either Google Workspace or Microsoft 365.

In this method, Salesforce is configured to route outgoing mail via Google Workspace or Microsoft 365.

The primary mail server will then route mail via the existing ids on the domain. By configuring the mail service to journal mail to Vaultastic, you can archive the mail sent via Salesforce in addition to the normal mail communication.

To archive emails sent from Salesforce, follow the steps mentioned below.

  1. Configure journaling on Google Workspace or Microsoft 365

  2. Allow Salesforce users to send email through Gmail/Office 365

  3. Confirm emails are archived on Vaultastic
