Salesforce Sandbox Setup

You will not be able to transfer anything created in Sandbox to Production. We offer Sandbox support strictly for testing the installation process.

Email gethelp@ambition.com requesting a Sandbox install so that the Ambition Support Team can make the necessary change to your default configuration.

Install Ambition into a Salesforce Sandbox 

1. Log in to your Ambition instance.

2. Open the left navigation and click Administration > Data > Integrations.

4. Click the Settings button to enter the Salesforce Integration.

7. When prompted, enter your Salesforce Sandbox credentials.

8. Click the Download for Sandbox button.

9. Set Security Level to "Install for Admins Only" and click Install.

10. Approve Third-Party Access with a checkmark and click Continue.

Ambition is now installing, a process that typically takes 3-4 minutes to complete.

Note: You cannot proceed until the Ambition support team has responded to your initial email in Step #1 saying that the configuration has been updated for Sandbox authorization.

 

10. Once installed, return to the Installation/Authentication tab within Ambition and click the green Authorize API button.

11. Click Allow when prompted. You will be redirected back to Ambition once authorization is complete. This authorization process might take ~1 minute.

Getting an error when you try to (re)authorize during steps 10 and 11? Try repeating the process with your browser in Private Browsing (IE) or Incognito (Chrome) mode. Sometimes there are cookie-related issues, especially if you have recently logged into another user's Salesforce account.
