Centro Conversation Tabs for Salesforce in MS Teams

Link conversations directly to Salesforce records and manage related data without leaving your channel or chat


Overview

Centro’s Conversation Tabs let you connect a chat or channel to a Salesforce record, giving your team instant access to key details and related lists. This integration streamlines workflows by allowing users to view, edit, and create Salesforce records directly within Centro.


Key Features

  • Link a conversation to any Salesforce object (e.g., Account, Opportunity)

  • View and manage related lists tied to the selected record

  • Edit records based on your Salesforce permissions

  • Create new related list items with automatic parent record association

  • Customize the record block with buttons and fields


Add the Centro App to a Conversation Tab

  • Open the desired conversation (chat or channel).

  • Click the + (plus) icon at the top of the conversation. Select Apps.

  • Search for Centro.

  • Click Add.

Once added, a Centro tab will appear at the top of the conversation.


  • In the Centro tab, click Associate this conversation with a Salesforce record.

    • Click the gear icon to configure the connection.

    • Select the Salesforce object type (e.g., Account, Case, Opportunity).

The selected Salesforce record will now appear in the Centro record block at the top of the tab.

  • Create new related list records

    • The parent record is automatically populated

    • Add calls or tasks directly from the record block
