Configuring Your Coveo for Salesforce Organization

On the Coveo for Salesforce Configuration page, you can:

Review the Configure Search section by clicking:
- Configure a Coveo Search Page to configure a Coveo-powered Full Search page.
- Configure a Coveo Insight Panel to review the documentation on how to integrate a Coveo Insight Panel Lightning Component.
Review the Related Actions section by clicking:
- Full Search to access your Coveo-powered Full Search page.
- Coveo Source Status to check the indexing status of your sources without using the Coveo Administration Console.
- Getting Started to review the documentation on how to get started with Coveo for Salesforce.
- Reset Your Configuration to disconnect your Coveo organization from your Coveo for Salesforce application (see Resetting Your Coveo for Salesforce Configuration). You must re-provision your Coveo for Salesforce application.
- Synchronize Your Configuration to ensure that your organization is still synchronized with the Coveo organization.
- Advanced Configuration to manage the way your user profiles are handled during queries (see Using the Advanced Configuration Page).

Using the Advanced Configuration Page

Modifying these settings can negatively impact your content privacy. You’re strongly discouraged from modifying these options unless instructed by Coveo Support.

To manage the profile used for your search queries before logging in, select one of the following options:
- Anonymous Profile: Queries present content based only on the currently logged in Salesforce user.
- QueryingUserProfile: Queries present content available to the user performing the query and to the default querying user profile.
  
  Prior to the May 2017 release of Coveo for Salesforce (v2.41), the Anonymous Profile and the QueryingUserProfile were reversed, meaning that the description for the Anonymous Profile applied to the QueryingUserProfile and vice versa.
To manage the information sent to Coveo Analytics, select one of the following options:
- Email address: The email address of the user is hashed before being sent to Coveo Analytics.
- Email username: The first part of the email address is hashed, while the second part isn’t.
- Nothing: The email address is left intact when sent to Coveo Analytics. This is the default and recommended option.
  
  Hashing the email address may lead to your users essentially querying only publicly available content.
Coveo for Salesforce 3.42 (November 2019) To manage the endpoint used for your search queries in multi-region deployments, specify a custom domain name (e.g., mycompany.org.coveo.com) for the endpoint. Click Test to validate the connectivity for your custom endpoint.

Only multi-region deployments require a custom domain name. No need to specify a value for the endpoint if your deployment strategy doesn’t include satellite deployment regions.
