Salesforce Inbox Included

More than a year ago, we wrote about Salesforce Inbox, and things have changed since the blog was written, mainly on the license, permissions set, and permissions. Here is the update:

In Summer '22 release, it was announced that Sales Cloud Unlimited and Performance Editions Now Include Inbox Without an Add-On License. If you are not using Unlimited and Performance Editions, you can still buy additional Inbox licenses separately (which also include the full Einstein Activity Capture license), check this

The new standard permission set is called Inbox Included, which contains Use Inbox permission, or as admin, you can create a custom permission set and select license = Inbox.


Or, you also can use the standard permission set Sales Cloud Included Bundle, which includes all permissions for Sales Cloud Unlimited. If you also purchased Sales Cloud Einstein and use the Sales Cloud Einstein permission set, Use Inbox permission is included in that permission set, so no need to assign many duplicates and unnecessary permission sets, always look for simplicity and clarity.

So again, what is Inbox? It is a productivity tool to work with Salesforce from your email client.

  • Contextual CRM — see relevant CRM records in your email client.
    • Easily create Lead/Contact if the sender or recipients are not in Salesforce.
