- Click the expand (+) button above the Settings Gear icon. A list of elements will show.
- Select the Widget option from the list.
- Click-and-drag the File Viewer element to the canvas.
- Click the File Viewer element settings Gear icon. The File Viewer Settings screen opens.
- Click the Salesforce option and click the Configure Integations button. The Salesforce Integration screen opens.
- Click the Create New button. The Map Salesforce fields screen opens.
- Use the drop-down lists to select the following:
- Object in Salesforce, for instance, Account.
- Trigger to execute pull, for instance, User Action.
- Click the Condition option and configure a condition, for instance, list Account IDs.
- Click the Mapping option and use the drop-down list to map the File Viewer/Content to the field in Salesforce where the image URL is stored.
- Click the Apply button. The integration is added to the screen.
- Click the Close button.
- Click the Gear icon to open the File Viewer Settings screen and, under Content, use the Type drop-down list to select a file type.
Note:
- You must select the same file type as in the URL: for instance, in this URL, the file type is PNG and then you must select PNG in the drop-down list: https://titandxp.com/wp-content/uploads/2022/08/Group-5.png
- If you map multiple files to the file viewer widget, they must all have the same file type.
Note:
This option only works for dynamic files.
When Static File is selected, the drop-down list is no longer active.

- Click the Configure Actions button.
- Hover with the mouse over the Start node and click the + icon.
- Select the Salesforce Action option and click the Next button.
