How WordPress and Salesforce records line up
WordPress and Salesforce share no customer or visit identifier. askotter puts them on one timeline instead, so a change in WordPress pages can be read against what Salesforce recorded in the same hours.
What combined reporting uses from each
Combined reporting needs a shared identifier or a shared time grain.
From WordPress that means page URLs. From Salesforce it means contact emails and account domains.
Salesforce is on the integration roadmap, so the matching described here starts when that connector ships.
What each tool sees on its ownShow less
WordPress on its own
WordPress knows what is published and when it changed. Without analytics beside it, it has no idea which pages bring in work.
Timing. WordPress stamps the publish and modified date on every post and page, which marks exactly when content changed.
Access. The WordPress REST API with an application password.
Salesforce on its own
Salesforce sees leads, accounts and opportunities. It knows which campaign produced a lead only when someone records it there.
Timing. Salesforce opportunity stages move when someone updates them, so pipeline data is as current as the team's CRM habits.
Access. A connected app with read-only access to Lead, Contact, Account and Opportunity.
