Installing or Upgrading The Salesforce Package
Overview
When you connect a Salesforce org to your Flosum Cloud Apps tenant, the Backup & Archive Salesforce package is installed in that org. Once the app is installed, you can upgrade it through your Backup & Archive settings. If you have trouble installing or upgrading the package, you can do so directly by following the instructions in this article.
Recommended Upgrade Process
The recommended process for upgrading the Backup & Archive Salesforce package is explained in the following article. Use the instructions on this page only if you have trouble with that process.
Installing or Upgrading Backup & Archive Package
Package Installation URL
Salesforce Domain URL
To get the Package Installation URL for your Salesforce org, you must first get your org's Salesforce Domain URL.
Log in to the Salesforce org where you want to install the Flosum Backup & Archive package.
Copy the org's domain URL from the browser's address bar.
Package Path
Each version of the package has its own path; always select the current path unless you have a specific reason for selecting the previous version.
Flosum rolls out new versions region by region, so different tenants receive them at different times. If you install a package from a newly released version, your tenant's region may not have received that release yet, which can produce unexpected results. If you are unsure which version to install, check with Flosum's Customer Support team.
