Conga Contracts Quickstart

Conga Contracts Quickstart is an optional add-on to Contracts for Salesforce to enable subscribers to quickly set up an integration between Conga Contracts for Salesforce and Conga Contracts.

When installed, the following components are automatically created:

  • A set of minimum required fields needed to sync Accounts and Contracts.
  • A checkbox on the ContentVersion object to indicate if a Salesforce file should be stored on the Conga Contracts Suite.
  • A custom content download handler Apex class for downloading Salesforce files stored on the Conga Contracts Suite.
  • Conga Contracts Quickstart permission set to conveniently provide users access to the installed components.
  • A Send Request custom button that delivers contract requests to Conga Contracts. The button must be added to the Contracts page layout.

The Conga Contracts Quickstart is an unmanaged package. Components exist natively on the subscriber Org so that subscribers have full access to the components.
