Frequently Asked Questions

How quickly can I set up the WhatsApp–Salesforce integration?
Most teams are fully connected in under 5 minutes. You sign up for TimelinesAI, scan a QR code (like WhatsApp Web), click 'Connect' in the Salesforce integration tab, and authorize via OAuth. Messages start syncing immediately.
Does this work with my existing WhatsApp number?
Yes. TimelinesAI works with your current WhatsApp numbers — personal or business. No need to create a new number, port an existing one, or set up a separate WhatsApp Business API account.
Can I connect multiple WhatsApp numbers?
Absolutely. Connect as many WhatsApp numbers as your team needs — there's no limit. Each team member can connect their own number, and all conversations flow into one shared Salesforce workspace.
Will existing Salesforce contacts auto-match?
Yes. TimelinesAI matches incoming WhatsApp messages to existing Salesforce Leads and Contacts by phone number. If there's a match, the message gets logged as a Task on the right record. If not, a new Lead or Contact is created automatically based on your settings.
Can I send WhatsApp messages from Salesforce?
Yes. Use the embedded chat panel (Chrome Extension) to send messages directly from Lead or Contact views in Salesforce. You can send free-text messages or use templates — replies sync back automatically.
Can I route messages to different Salesforce objects?
Yes. With custom sync destinations, you can route WhatsApp conversations to Leads, Contacts, Opportunities, Cases, or custom objects. Configure which Salesforce objects receive WhatsApp data based on your rules.
Which Salesforce editions does this work with?
TimelinesAI works with all Salesforce editions — Essentials, Professional, Enterprise, and Unlimited. No Digital Engagement add-on needed. The integration connects via Salesforce's standard OAuth.
How is this different from Salesforce's native WhatsApp integration?
Salesforce's native WhatsApp requires the Digital Engagement add-on SKU ($75/user/mo), available only on Enterprise+ editions. It also requires WhatsApp Business API setup — a new business number, Meta verification, and template approvals. TimelinesAI works with your existing WhatsApp numbers on any Salesforce edition. Scan a QR code and you're connected in minutes.
Can I use the embedded chat view inside Salesforce?
Yes. The TimelinesAI Chrome Extension adds a WhatsApp chat panel directly inside Salesforce record pages. See full conversation history and reply to messages without leaving Salesforce — on any Lead, Contact, or Opportunity record.
How much does it cost?
Plans start at $25/user/month for message sync and shared inbox. The CRM + Automate plan at $40/user/month adds auto-creation of Deals and Leads, Custom Actions, and the embedded chat panel. All plans include a free 10-day trial — no credit card required.
Is my data secure?
Yes. TimelinesAI uses end-to-end encryption for message transfer, stores data in secure EU/US data centers, and is fully GDPR-compliant. Your WhatsApp messages are synced directly to your Salesforce account — we don't store message content permanently on our servers.

Two Ways to Integrate WhatsApp with Salesforce

There are two main approaches to connecting WhatsApp with Salesforce. Each serves different needs:

1. Salesforce's Native WhatsApp Channel — Uses the WhatsApp Business API through the Digital Engagement add-on ($75/user/month), available only on Enterprise, Performance, and Unlimited editions. Requires registering a new business number, Meta Business verification, and template approvals. Best for large enterprises that need official API features like message templates and broadcast messaging.

2. TimelinesAI WhatsApp Integration — Works with your existing WhatsApp numbers (personal or business). Connect via QR code in under 2 minutes — no API setup, no new number needed. Best for teams that already use WhatsApp on their phones and want to sync those conversations into Salesforce automatically.

What Does the TimelinesAI Salesforce Integration Do?

TimelinesAI provides a two-way sync between WhatsApp and Salesforce. Here's what gets connected:

  • Messages → Tasks: Every WhatsApp message (sent and received) is logged as a Task on the matching Lead or Contact in Salesforce.
  • New contacts → Leads/Contacts: When someone messages you on WhatsApp and doesn't exist in Salesforce, a new Lead or Contact is created automatically.
  • Custom object mapping: Route messages to Leads, Contacts, Opportunities, Cases, or custom objects based on your rules.
  • Embedded chat: Reply to WhatsApp messages directly from Salesforce record pages via the Chrome Extension.
  • Group chat sync: Optionally sync WhatsApp group conversations to Salesforce.

Related Integrations

TimelinesAI also offers WhatsApp integration for other CRMs: HubSpot WhatsApp Integration, Pipedrive WhatsApp Integration, Zoho CRM WhatsApp Integration, and Monday.com WhatsApp Integration. If your team uses a WhatsApp shared inbox, that's included in every plan.
