Installation
Q: I want to install the CRM Plugin in our SFDC sandbox environment so we can thoroughly test it before moving it to production. How do I do this?
A: Normally, we leave the CRM URL field in the CRM configuration screen blank and the standard SFDC server is used. If you are installing this in a test environment, just add the SFDC URL for your test enviornment in this field. The SFDC URL should look something like:
https://test.salesforce.com/services/Soap/u/10.0
Q: I am upgrading to the latest release. Do I have to run the installer again?
A: No. Upgrading the CRM Plugin to the latest release is easy:
- Download latest JAR file
- Stop the Atlassian JIRA service
- Copy the downloaded JAR file to WEB-INF/Lib on the JIRA server
- Restart the Atlassian JIRA service
Q: Does each SFDC user need to have a specific JIRA user account?
A: No, the SFDC configuration specifies the JIRA user ID to be used for communication between the two systems.
Q: Our JIRA instance is located on our intranet and is not publicly accessible - Can we still use the CRM Plugin?
A: Yes! There are no additional requirements needed to implement the CRM Plugin within your company's intranet. There are a few feature differences when using the CRM Plugin with JIRA located on an intranet:
- From JIRA you can lookup SFDC accounts, display the SFDC information within a JIRA issue, and push JIRA issues to SFDC.
- You would not be able to perform any of the functionality within the SFDC GUI, eg, view JIRA issues, or add a SFDC case to JIRA without external access to your JIRA server.

Security
Q: What type of security is built into the CRM Plugin?
A: The Go2Group CRM Plugin uses a SOAP interface, allowing for a tight integration with Atlassian JIRA. The data exchange is done via recommended SFDC security checks to prevent any spoofing attempts. The Go2Group CRM Plugin ensures that requests ONLY come from the SFDC application over an encrypted (SSL) established connection between the two systems.

Usage
Q: Can you use the custom SFDC fields for reports / searches within JIRA?
A: Yes! These fields can be used when using JIRA's search functionality, if the searcher was defined when creating the custom field within JIRA.
Q: Does the cache bring over cached contact information only? Or does contact information get pulled instantly from SFDC?
A: New information will be added to the cache after the cache timeout interval has expired as defined within the CRM Plugin configuration.
