Send notifications using Acrobat Sign for Salesforce and Marketo
Learn how to send a text message, email, or push notification to let the signer know an agreement is on its way using Acrobat Sign, Acrobat Sign for Salesforce, Marketo, and the Marketo Salesforce Sync. To send notifications from Marketo, you first need to purchase or configure a Marketo SMS management feature. This walkthrough uses Twilio SMS, but other Marketo SMS solutions are available.
Prerequisites

Once the Marketo Salesforce Sync and Acrobat Sign for Salesforce configurations are complete, several new options appear in the Marketo Admin Terminal.

Click Refresh Schema.

On the right side, see Lead, Contact, and Account-based custom objects.
Enable Sync for the objects under Lead if you want to trigger when a Lead is added to an agreement in Salesforce.
