Orb's sales automation integration brings the full power of Orb's APIs natively into Salesforce. This integration allows your sales operation team to build customizable, automated provisioning workflows via Salesforce Flow.

With this integration, you can: Automatically create an Orb subscription when an opportunity is closed, also transferring the customer information and metadata as appropriate Use details from custom or native objects in Salesforce (e.g. an Order) to properly set pricing information in Orb. This integration enables incredibly powerful workflows, including those that create net-new plans corresponding to your customer's order structure.
Because your sales reps work directly in Salesforce, this automation minimizes the incidence of manual errors because it eliminates re-entry of billing details in Orb — once set up, information syncs between systems seamlessly.
