For example: Email. Case Record Type The record type for which you want the case to be created. For example: Roster. - Click Save. A verification email is sent to the routing email address that you entered.
-
Confirm your email routing address by checking its inbox for a Salesforce verification
email. Or click Verify next to the routing address on the Email-to-Case
Routing Address page.
Note You can't use unverified routing addresses to send emails, and you don't get all the benefits of verified email routing addresses. - Return to the Email-to-Case page in Setup. In the Routing Addresses section, notice that Salesforce generated an email service address for your routing address.
- Test your email routing address by manually sending an email to it. Verify that a case was created to track the email, and check that its default settings match the routing address settings.
- After you add an email address as a routing address, share it with your providers. Providers can use this email address to send roster files to your organization.
