If you are using our Salesforce package, you will not need to use these instructions. 
This article is only if you need to create the MadKudu fields manually because you do not want to use our Salesforce package.

 

You are on the right page if you are looking for the specifications of the fields to create in your Salesforce to receive the MadKudu data.


  • The Customer Fit and Likelihood to Buy models at the Lead/Contact or Account level have a set of 4 fields (segment, score, formatted (the "emojis"), signals).

  • The Lead Grade model at the Lead/Contact level has a set of 3 fields (segment, score, formatted (the "emojis")). The Grade does not exist at the Account level. 

(For a definition of the fields, please refer to this article).

 

To create fields in Salesforce, you can either go

Create MadKudu fields through Salesforce interface

In your Salesforce

  • Click on the gear icon in the top right corner.

  • go to Setup > Object Manager

  • select the object Lead, Contact or Account

  • Select the Type, click Next
