Issue DescriptionYou are having issues with Single Sign On and Support requests for you to provide the SAML Response. How can you find this information?Issue Resolution There are multiple ways to capture a SAML Response, but the easiest one is by using SAML Tracer (addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/saml-tracer/), a Firefox plug-in or other similar plug-ins or add-ons for Chrome such as SAML Chrome Panel (chrome.google.com/webstore/detail/saml-chrome-panel/paijfdbeoenhembfhkhllainmocckace?hl=en) which adds a SAML tab to the built in Developer Tools. As with any third party integration, make sure you're comfortable with permissions they request and you fully trust them before you proceed. Many teams also use networking tools like Fiddler - these should also work just fine.Once you or the user having the log-in issues have one of these tools installed, you'll need to attempt to login via SSO on the appropriate browser and the plug-in/add-on will capture the SAML response. The result

Issue DescriptionWhen examining a lead's activity log, you notice a Sync Error which reads "CANNOT_EXECUTE_FLOW_TRIGGER: The record couldn’t be saved because it failed to trigger a flow. A flow trigger failed to execute the flow with version ID ______________. Flow error messages: An unhandled fault has occurred in this flow. An unhandled fault has occurred while processing the flow. Please contact your system administrator for more information. Contact your administrator for help." Issue Resolution That error message is generated by Salesforce when Marketo tries to sync a lead that does not meet a trigger flow rule that is setup in your Salesforce instance. Marketo has no visibility into this error message other than what is returned by Salesforce.Please take the full details of this error message to your SFDC Administrator or Support. They will be able to identify the flow or process which is preventing the sync update and make any necessary adjustments.Who This Solution Applies To
Issue DescriptionWhen I add variables to my email template assets, the value assigned to that variable is not showing in the text-only version of the email even though it shows in the HTML version.Issue Resolution Email 2.0 variables do not pass the defined values for variables through to the text-only email. Since Marketo token values are passed through to the text-only email, customers may expect variable values to also be passed through to text-only emails. However, this is not currently the case.
Issue DescriptionWhen you copy the URL for an Image asset in Design Studio and put it in your email or Landing Page, the image won't load. Other images with the same dimensions work.

Issue DescriptionMarketo can now trigger off of changes to Marketo custom objects - docs.marketo.com/display/public/DOCS/Trigger+Off+Custom+Object+Changes - but that functionality doesn't work for Salesforce custom objects.Issue Resolution A workaround that can allow for this to happen is to set up a Marketo custom object that mirrors the SFDC object, then use Apex triggers in SFDC to push the information for the SFDC object to the Marketo object - developer.salesforce.com/page/Creating_REST_APIs_using_Apex_REST.In essence, this maps the SFDC object to the Marketo one, and any changes made on the SFDC side will get pushed to Marketo, and can then be triggered off of in your campaigns.Who This Solution Applies To SFDC integrations with Salesforce custom objects
Issue DescriptionEven though the report and smart list may be looking at exactly the same thing (e.g. an email sent to a specific group on a specific day), many times the numbers in the report do not match the results of the smart list.Issue Resolution Reports in Marketo like the Email Performance Report are returning results of activities that occurred in your instance, while smart lists return results of currently existing person records. When a person is deleted or merged, the activities associated with the person do not get pruned or purged.So a smart list that looks for opened email will return all the currently existing records who have that open activity but will not return results of deleted or merged records. Conversely, a report looking at the same thing will return all activities, even if the records no longer exist.
Issue DescriptionWhen there is a change to a field in your CRM that is mapped to a Marketo score type field, the next time the sync processes the change will be reverted and there will be a "Sync Person Updates" activity logged showing that the original value got pushed back from Marketo to the CRM.Issue Resolution Score type fields are designed to be managed solely by Marketo, since that is a unique field type to our system. Scoring is intended to be handled by the scoring campaigns that you set up in Marketo, and pushed to the CRM if necessary.If you have a score field that you intend to put processes in place where your CRM will be updating the values, simply make sure that the Marketo field that it is mapped to is an Integer type field.Who This Solution Applies To All instances with a native CRM integration (SFDC or MSD)
Here it is: Your guide to understanding merges in Marketo, in Salesforce, and how the two interact.Merging Two LeadsWe begin with two records in Marketo which have been synced to Salesforce. Both are leads in Salesforce, not contacts.Lead A, Marky Marky, has a Marketo ID of 1001446 and an SFDC ID of 00Qi000000vJ0hK.Lead B, Markee Marquee, has a Marketo ID of 1001447 and an SFDC ID of 00Qi000000vJ0hU.We wish to merge these leads in Marketo. In this example, I first select Lead B, and then hold SHIFT to select Lead A as well. Then right-click in the highlighted area to bring up the Lead Actions drop-down (or click Lead Actions at the top of the screen), and select Merge Leads from the choices.Now I see the Merge Leads dialog box, where we decide which conflicting field values we want to win. We could click the box next to "Lead 1" if I want all of Markee Marquee's values to win. Instead we check the box next to "Marky" because we want that to be their first name, rather than "Markee". Th

OverviewStarting August 15, 2018, Marketo will be implementing a new policy for the retention of marketing activity data. Under this policy, Activity and Campaign Membership data will be stored for a rolling 25 months past the activity date, and high-volume activity data will be retained for a rolling period of at least 90-days past the activity date. Beyond these retention periods, the data will not be available through the Marketo UI.Marketo Analytics ReportsWith data being retained for up to 25 months, some Marketo Analytics reports will be affected. Not all reports will result in changes – reports that draw data from lead activity logs will only show data for up to 25 months. Other reports that do not reference lead activity at all will be unaffected.However, even reports that do not reference lead activity by default could be affected if there are filters added to the smart list of the report. Filters that reference lead attributes (information in fields in the lead record) will n
What’s changing? Previously, customers could choose whether they wanted to secure their pages and tracking links via SSL. The responsibility of procuring, maintaining, renewing, and securely sending the certificates to Marketo lie entirely with the customer – Marketo just hosted them. In 2017, Chrome and Firefox announced they would begin flagging any unsecured pages with clear ‘NOT SECURE’ warnings in their 2018 releases to encourage the use of SSL, and even distrusted certificates from certain providers. This essentially designated the certificate as a foundational security necessity to prevent customers fleeing from unsecured sites. This change reinforced the increasing need for companies to protect their data and mitigate against online security threats. Recent studies have shown that ~45% of organizations are targets of Distributed Denial of Service (DDoS) attacks, typically lasting a few hours, and potentially costing companies not only lost revenue, but also cus
Issue DescriptionYou have the Munchkin tracking code on your non-Marketo web page but visits to the page are not being tracked. Issue Resolution If you have customized the Munchkin tracking code, it may not work. Marketo only supports the Munchkin code as it is provided in your instance. If you need to alter the code, you would need to work with your web developer to determine why the customized code is not working. To find the supported Munchkin tracking code:Go to Admin > Munchkin. Select the version of Munchkin you intend to use. Place the Munchkin code on your page as outlined in our document on adding Munchkin tracking to your site.Is this article helpful ?YesNo
