What does this mean? And which steps do you have to undertake in order to use ADvendios integration features?
Solution:
Don’t worry, this message doesn’t mean there is a problem, but just that you as a Salesforce User need to allow the ADvendio Gateway to access your data and our integration features to work.
Why is this required?
The ADvendio Connect features, such as our AdServer, SSP and DSP integrations will allow you to push information like the Media Campaigns and Campaign Items from ADvendio into the connected systems, but also to receive information like delivery information automatically into ADvendio.
To support this our Gateway needs the possibility to access and modify your Salesforce data on behalf of your user, even if you are not logged in, like when we automatically sync delivery and status information.
However this will only access data required for ADvendio features and the processes all have to be activated either by you or your system administrator, so ADvendio will not automatically modify all your data once your activated authorization.
Which data is accessed?
The ADvendio Gateway will only access Salesforce data that is required for its features. This mainly covers ADvendio objects such as Media Campaigns, Campaign Items or AccountsExternal Account IDs.
We will not access any personal user information such as address, email or date of birth. For certain external systems, ADvendio can access which Salesforce User started the process and send the Name of that user to the External System, but other than that no personal data is used.
