Install and Set Up in Salesforce CRM

Install and Set Up in Salesforce CRM

Installing and configuring the Marketing Cloud Connect managed package in your Salesforce CRM (Sales or Service Cloud) is the essential foundation for linking your CRM and Salesforce Marketing Cloud (SFMC) environments via an automated API handshake. It provides the essential components—such as custom objects, fields, visual layouts, and apex code—needed to enable cross-cloud workflows

Install the Managed Package

Step 1: 

  • Confirm you are using the most recent version of a supported web browser, then click one of these URLs.
  • Log in to your Salesforce CRM account using your admin credentials, and then select Install for Admins Only.
  • Click Install. (If prompted, grant access to these third-party websites).
  • Click Continue.

I went with Production Org: https://sfdc.co/MCC> Selected Install for Admins only> Install> Continue




The process failed as I received an email that "Your request to install package "Marketing Cloud Marketing Cloud" was unsuccessful":


Some of the reasons could be:

-The installer needs to create several new Auto-Launcher and since the org already reached the allowed limit, it could not add addition

Check the deployment status in developer tool to understand why that has happened by clicking in view details:



- Since I am using the free trial of the service, marketing cloud connect is not supported on salesforce edition which is why the installation failed.
