May 11, 2026 | Talkdesk for Salesforce 7.2

On Monday, May 11, 2026, we will release the following new enhancements and bug fixes on Talkdesk for Salesforce:

Enhancements:

  • Ring Groups to Queues: To align with Talkdesk's transition from Ring Groups to Queues terminology, all references to Ring Groups within the Talkdesk for Salesforce package have been updated to Queues.

Fixes:

  • Dynamic Outbound Caller ID Flow Field: Fixed an issue where clicking on the Dynamic Outbound Caller ID Flow field would not display any options to select. The field now correctly lists all available flows as selectable options.
  • Lightning Flow Automations Flow Selection: Resolved an issue where no values appeared when selecting a flow in the Lightning Flow Automations section. The flow selector now correctly displays all available options.

How to Upgrade / Install: 

  • Version 7.2 of the Talkdesk for Salesforce package will be available to customers from May 11, 2026.

December 11, 2025 | Talkdesk for Salesforce 7.1

On Thursday, December 11th, 2025, we will release the following new features, enhancements, and bug fixes on Talkdesk for Salesforce:

New:

  • Updates to the Active Users tab on Talkdesk Admin Users section: 
    • Change Permission Set button: Admins can now change Talkdesk permission sets for users, individually or in bulk, from the Active Users tab. This button replaces the Change Role button. Talkdesk Roles can only be changed directly in Talkdesk now.
    • New Permission Set Column: A new "Permission Set" column is now displayed on the Active Users table. This new column will display the highest access level Talkdesk Permission Set assigned to a user.

 

Enhancements:

  • Seat Management sync: The seat management sync was improved from package version 7.0. When a T4SF/T4SV license is attributed to a user in the Subscriptions App, the sync process starts, and only users who don’t yet have a standard Talkdesk permission set assigned have their permissions updated. For more details on the new license management process, check this article.
  • Inactive Users tab: The Add User button in the “Inactive Users” tab on the Talkdesk Admin Users section is now labeled “Create Talkdesk User”. This new label better reflects the current functionality of the button.
  • Workspace Embedded landing page: Workspace Embedded landing page will now reflect users' app permissions. This fixes the "page not found" error encountered by users who land on the Home App without having access to it. 

 

Fixes:

  • Client Integration Inconsistency: Fixed a bug where the wrong client integration was being displayed inside the User profile.
  • Issues resolved through Patch Versions: A number of patch upgrades have been released to resolve critical bugs introduced in package version 7.0. Below is a change log detailing the fixes and release dates for each corresponding patch version.

October 10, 2025 | Talkdesk for Salesforce 7.0

On Friday, October 10th, 2025, we will release the following new features, enhancements, and fixes on Talkdesk for Salesforce:

New:

  • Seat Management with Subscriptions App: Manage seats on the Subscriptions App to assign and remove licenses to Talkdesk for Salesforce and Talkdesk for Salesforce Voice users. License management becomes self-service. More details here.
  • Subscriptions App Embedded within Talkdesk Admin: The Subscriptions App can now be accessed within Salesforce, embedded directly on Talkdesk Admin > Users tab, allowing admins to directly manage users and seats within Salesforce. More details here. 
  • Active and Inactive User Management on Talkdesk Admin updates: 
    • Inactive Users tab - “Add user” flow will only create a Talkdesk user. Admins will then need to assign licenses to newly created users via Manage Seats, using the new embedded app mentioned above, for the user to be assigned the permission sets and have access to the integration. 
    • Active Users tab - Change CTI, and Deactivate operations will be blocked on the Active Talkdesk Users tab.

Note: These changes are not applied for accounts leveraging Concurrent licenses. In this case, customers will not have access to the Subscriptions App and will continue to manage users in the Talkdesk Admin Users tab. 

Enhancements:

  • Enhanced User Management on Talkdesk Admin: Both active and inactive users section can now display up to 200 users per page. Simplifies user management for Admins, especially for a large number of users.
  • Workspace Embedded Multi-render: Pop-out button has been disabled on Workspace Rendered Layout for Talkdesk Embedded to prevent agents from accidentally terminating their session.
  • Client Integration for Integration User: After Talkdesk for Salesforce integration setup, the client integration value is automatically set to Salesforce for the Integration user. 

Fixes:

  • Presence Sync of Agents Without Omni-Channel: Fixed a bug where the presence status was being synced for agents not using the omnichannel. Now, Omni-channel status will only be synced for Users who have access to Omni-channel presence status and use Omni-channel on the Salesforce console. 
  • Dynamically Modifying Dialer Lists: Fixed a bug where adding or removing members dynamically from Dialer Lists using a Salesforce Flow was unsuccessful when the Dialer List was based on fields from Custom Objects. Now Dialer Lists can be dynamically modified based on fields from Custom Objects. 

How to Upgrade / Install: 

  • Version 7.0 of the Talkdesk for Salesforce package will be rolled out to customers from October 11, 2025 based on their region, unless they have opted out of the automatic upgrade. Product Notice published on 25 September 2025.

May 6, 2025 | Talkdesk for Salesforce 6.8

On Tuesday, May 6th, 2025, we will release the following new features and enhancements on Talkdesk for Salesforce:

New:

This can be achieved by popping out the Workspace that will host the connection in a separate browser tab. More details here.

This offers an easy way to create and integrate a Talkdesk account with your Salesforce environment to try out Talkdesk for Salesforce.

How to Upgrade / Install:

There will now be a Talkdesk activity for each Interaction/Call, as well as for each Contact/Transfer within that Interaction.
