Create Campaign

Use the Create Campaign action to create a campaign in your Salesforce account.

Complete the following steps to use the Create Campaign action in your workflow:

1. Drag the Create Campaign action under Salesforce to the canvas, place the pointer on the action, and then click

or double-click the action. The Create Campaign window opens.

2. Edit the Label, if needed. By default, the label name is the same as the action name.
