We’re currently testing Zoom Phone with Salesforce Sales Engagement (Cadence) and have run into an issue with call logging.
When a user clicks dial, Salesforce’s “Log a Call” screen appears as expected. However, the logged Zoom Phone call log is not being associated with the existing Cadence task.
Additionally, Zoom Phone provides a call disposition feature, but when used, it creates a new task instead of updating/completing the existing Cadence task.(Based on config, we can enable/disable this feature to create a seperate task for Zoom Phone calls)
Questions:
- Is there a way to associate Zoom Phone call logs with the existing Cadence task?
- Can Zoom call dispositions be tied back to the Cadence task instead of creating a new one?
- Are there any recommended best practices or workarounds for this integration?
Appreciate any guidance or insights from others who have implemented this setup.
Thank you!
We've run into similar call logging scenarios when integrating telephony with Salesforce. In many cases, the phone system creates its own Task record, which doesn't automatically update the existing Sales Engagement Cadence task.
If keeping call logs tied to the same Salesforce workflow is important, it's worth looking at how the CTI integration handles task updates and activity logging. 360 CTI is one option that supports Salesforce-native call logging and configurable activity association, so it may be useful if you're evaluating alternatives or need more flexibility than your current setup provides.
It would also be interesting to hear if anyone has been able to achieve this with Zoom Phone using configuration alone.
