Displaying ScreenSteps Live content within a Salesforce tab

This tutorial will show you how to add a tab to SalesForce that displays content from ScreenSteps Live. It is quite easy to do and makes integrating customized help files into your SalesForce account a cinch.

Click on Setup

Select Tab Layout

Media_1292423340237_display Zoom

Select a tab layout and click Next.

Enter Display Properties

Media_1292423403564_display Zoom

Enter the name for the tab and other tab properties and click Next.

Example text: ScreenSteps Live documentation showing how our company uses Salesforce.com.

Enter ScreenSteps Live URL

Media_1292423455169_display Zoom

Enter the URL to your ScreenSteps Live content. If your ScreenSteps Live content is protected then you may want to embed the login credentials in the URL so users don't have to log in each time to view the content. We have a lesson on embedding login credentials in a URL.

Click Next.

Add to Profiles

Media_1292423513812_display Zoom

Set which profiles the tab should appear on.

Specify Which Apps The Tab Appears In

The last thing to do is tell SalesForce which apps to display the tab in. If your help files apply to all apps then just leave every box checked.

Click Save.

The Result

After saving the tab you will see your tab in the list of Web Tabs (1). If you are currently in an app that the tab is displayed in then you will see the tab appear as well (2).

Clicking on the tab displays the ScreenSteps Live content.
