I have email to salesforce setup but when I go into my gmail to forward from an org wide email address to a email to salesforce email I am not getting the task to confirm the Gmail account, therefore I can not get the email forwarding to fully function.

Hi everyone,  

 

We have an email address that should not receive any case auto-replies. I excluded them in the case response rule, but now all auto-replies are being stopped. What did I do wrong?

🔧 Enhance Your Salesforce Support with Variation Presets! 🔧

Managing multiple support teams in Salesforce can be challenging, especially when it comes to controlling which fields appear for each team. With Variation Presets in Email to Case Premium, you can customize settings and fields on the new comment page to meet the specific needs of different teams.

 

For instance, your Delivery Support team may need to update different fields when sending an email than your Product Defect team. This customization ensures each team has the right tools for the right people.

I want to create a flow that will parse out the case subject line to populate a custom lookup field on a case. Our subject line contains a Quote number that starts with a SQ or SMQ followed by 6 numbers. I want to pull in the quote number to the custom lookup field from the subject line. I am new to flow so any help is appreciated. 

 

Examples of subject line: 

  1. SQ459927 - A3im FW: A3im New Purchase Order
  2. FW: [External] PO P35072 for SQ459920
  3. Process SMQ666666

To get data from emails in Salesforce, you can use several methods and tools depending on the specific use case and requirements. 

 

global class EmailService extends Messaging.InboundEmailService {

    global Messaging.InboundEmailResult processIncomingEmail(Messaging.inboundEmail email, Messaging.InboundEnvelope envelope) {

        // Get the email body and subject

        String body = email.plainTextBody;

        String subject = email.subject;

 

        // Extract data from the email body using regular expressions or string manipulation

        // For example, let's extract the customer name and order number

        Pattern pattern = Pattern.compile('Customer Name: (.*?)\n');

        Matcher matcher = pattern.matcher(body);

        String customerName = matcher.find() ? matcher.group(1) : '';

 

        pattern = Pattern.compile('Order Number: (.*?)\n');

        matcher = pattern.matcher(body);

        String orderNumber = matcher.find() ? matcher.group(1) : '';

 

        // Create a new record in Salesforce using the extracted data

        Account acc = new Account(Name = customerName);

        insert acc;

 

        Order ord = new Order(AccountId = acc.Id, OrderNumber = orderNumber);

        insert ord;

 

        // Return a success response

        return new Messaging.InboundEmailResult(success=true);

    }

}

📣📡 How To Switch To Lightning Threading

Email threading in Salesforce refers to the process of automatically grouping related emails together in the context of a specific record, typically a case. This way, you can see the entire conversation history between a customer and your support team in one place.

Salesforce offers a few different methods for achieving email threading:

📌 Lightning Threading (available since Spring ’23): This is the newest approach and relies on secure tokens embedded in outgoing emails. When a customer replies to an email with a token, Salesforce can match it back to the relevant case.

📌 Email Header-Based Threading: This method looks for a specific email header field (Message-ID) in the “In-Reply-To” and “References” fields to link replies to the original email.

📌 Ref ID-Based Threading (mostly replaced by Lightning Threading): In this older method, a reference ID was included in the email subject line to associate replies with a particular case.

Lightning threading is generally considered the most secure and reliable option, as it avoids potential issues with customers modifying the subject line and removing the Ref ID.

Sometimes we have noticed email to case attachments are not saving as Salesforce files.  I have checked all of our settings and settings are accurate.  To be clear, here are the settings I can confirm we have set up correctly:

 

  • If Salesforce Admin enables "Show Email Attachments in Case Attachments Related List" from Setup | Support Settings, then the email attachments are also displayed in the case 'Attachments' related list.
  • If Salesforce Admin enables "Save Email-to-Case attachments as Salesforce Files" from Setup | Email-to-Case Settings, then the email attachments are stored as Files and are displayed in the 'Files' related list on the Case record

This does not happen all the time. In fact, I tested this multiple times and the attachments moved into Salesforce just fine.  Here is one example of an email-to-case that did not save attachment as a file. It does not even show up in the attachments section of the email screen in Salesforce. (Sorry I have to cut a lot of the email out but I hope you get the idea):

Email to Case Attachments not saving as Salesforce Files

 

Is the issue because the image is embedded sent from an iPhone? I can't find any documentation on this being a problem. In fact, I found documentation saying embedded images should get attached in Salesforce (as we are expecting them to). Thanks in advance #Salesforce Admin #TrailblazerCommunity #Help #Email-to-case

    @Merrick Deville - ours ended up being a problem related to our Apex code when mapping the attachments upon creating a new case.

I'm creating an Auto Response Email indicating to a client that a Support case has been created.  As part of the email we are allowing the client to respond back to this email.

 

Question:  If the client responds back to the email will the response be recorded against the newly created case?  Do I need to add the Thread ID field to both the subject and the body?

 

Thanks

    Salesforce migrated from Thread ID to Message header and if upgrade is already done in your org, then customer reply will automatically get attached to existing thread without Ref ID. 

    But if org is still relies on Thread ID, then Salesforce identifies if its reply to existing email using Thread ID in either email subject or body, so it has to be included in one of these places.

    Note: There is also lightning threading that Salesforce has introduced which is latest, so it depends on which settings is enabled. Refer to below link for more details,

We work with Email-to-case everything works well, except for a detail, when a case is created it is sent to the support address and in CC to several people, when one of the people in the loop responds to all, it creates a new case.

 Is there a way to avoid creating a new ticket every time ?  Thank you !

    Hi Mahdi,   This is a common problem with email to case - to my knowledge there isn't really a way around it without trying to auto merge cases based on their subject and what is contained in their body (which is open to error itself). You would probably need to manage this with code too.   The problem is, the people responding to the case don't yet have the Case 'Thread Id' which will allow Salesforce to link it back to the case.   Including everyone CC'd into the original email in your auto response email can help with this issue.

     

    Go to: Setup -> Case Auto-Response Rules -> Select the relevant Rule(s) -> Select 'Edit' next to the relevant Rule Entries -> Select the 'Send response to all recipients' checkbox. 

     

    Hi Mahdi, This is a common problem with email to case - to my knowledge there isn't really a way around it without trying to auto merge cases based on their subject and what is contained in their body

     

    This will keep the CC's email addresses in your auto response. Also, in that auto response email, you can add merge fields containing the original email body (Case Description) and original email subject (Case Subject) and specifically ask for you customers to reply to that email if they want to reply - so everything stays in the same thread. 

     

    Let me know if this helps. 

     

    Many thanks, Angus
