Important The date for the automigration to is unique to each org. Notifications will be sent on a rolling basis starting early June 2026. Check your Einstein Activity Capture settings for your timeline.

With Sync Email as Salesforce Activity, Einstein Activity Capture saves all captured email data as activity data. This data is available to platform tools and operations, including agents and AI powered-features, standard reports, workflow automation, and APIs. Customize how emails are matched to contacts, leads, accounts, and opportunities. Control what gets captured: the entire email or just the header. And manage email sharing and all other activity sharing from one setting.

Before you start the process, review [Guidelines for Sync Email as Salesforce Activity](https://help.salesforce.com/s/articleView?id=sales.eac_email_activity.htm&release=264.0.0&type=5 "When Sync Email as Salesforce Activity is enabled, Einstein Activity Capture captures and stores email data as Salesforce records. It gets associated with a relevant user, contact, or lead record and a related account or opportunity. You can use the email data in reports, workflows, and triggers and access the data through APIs. There’s also more privacy options for email capture and customizable flows for matching your email to other records.") and [Considerations for Sync Email as Salesforce Activity](https://help.salesforce.com/s/articleView?id=sales.eac_email_activity_considerations.htm&release=264.0.0&type=5 "Keep these limits and considerations in mind when Sync Email as Salesforce Activity is enabled in Einstein Activity Capture and using Activities: Match Email to Records flow to match captured email data to existing records.").

If you don't complete the update before your automigration date, Salesforce migrates your org automatically using full email capture and your maximum email retention history. After the migration completes, you can return to Einstein Activity Capture Settings to customize your configuration.
