Salesforce HelpRange Integration: A Detailed Overview

As we all know, security is the most important consideration in any organization.

For example, if any person outside of the organization (Org) has access to our organization then we must secure and restrict some areas of our Org.

That is why we want restricted access to the outside user. When we give access to any document to the user then security comes into the picture.

As the business grows, we need faster data transfer. So, sending hardcopy by delivery service is not convenient.

We know that giving information through hardcopy is more secure but not as fast as giving information through soft copy. That is why we want security on soft copy documents.

Tracking the provided information is also especially useful to grow any org. Documents contain lots of information.

We would like to know which part of the document is most reviewed by users etc. For this purpose, we want some API tools and HelpRange fits the bill.
