Installing and Configuring the Quickstart
The Conga Contracts Quickstart is an optional add on to the Contracts for Salesforce product to enable subscribers to quickly set up an integration between Conga Contracts for Salesforce and Conga Contracts.
You can install the Conga Contracts for Salesforce Quickstart unmanaged package to your Org. This allows you to connect the Conga Contracts Suite for external file storage and Conga Contracts to map Salesforce data to your Org. The connection between systems and contract request actions are active.

Recommendations and tips
When you connect a Contracts for Salesforce and Conga Contracts Org, your connection should remain stable and consistent. Disconnecting the Conga Contracts Org or the Contracts for Salesforce Org causes errors and lack of functionality in the one or both Orgs.
You must move the expiration date on the Contracts for Salesforce Org. Visit the Contracts for Salesforce partner community here: https://partners.salesforce.com/
You MUST do the three steps mentioned above BEFORE you run the quick start configuration. Running the Quickstart configuration before or during those steps has not been tested and will most likely cause errors and set computers on fire.
If you want a new connection from a GDO or SF developer org to a Conga Contracts org you need new a new version of both orgs set up for a fresh connection. DO NOT delete a connection assuming you can reuse orgs.
For more information see the Conga Contracts Quickstart.
