Guidelines and Considerations

  • The invocable action used in this action is for triggering lead assignment rules when creating a lead. If you don’t to follow these rules, remove the invocable action.
  • A lead record is only created if the agent is able to collect all of the specified fields. If a required field is missing, lead creation will fail.
  • Avoid asking for more than five fields of information.
  • To add or remove specific record fields when creating a lead, update the instructions in the Sales Record Creation topic and the Create a Sales Lead Record flow to include only your desired fields.
