Getting Started

This application is developed for Heroku-hosted deployments, complementing Salesforce Marketing Cloud (SFMC) integration.

Salesforce Marketing Cloud Setup

  1. Create a Web App package with "Write" permissions under the "Data Extensions" section in SFMC.
  2. Set the redirect URI to https://yourherokudomain.herokuapp.com.

For SFMC UI integration:

  • Configure the "Login Endpoint" to https://yourherokudomain.herokuapp.com/initiate-authorization/.
  • The "Logout Endpoint" can point to https://yourherokudomain.herokuapp.com/log-out/, though this URL is placeholder and should be customized as needed.
