Marketo form in Salesforce Partner Community

Hi,

I have a question hopefully someone can answer. We are trying to insert a Marketo form into a Salesforce Partner Community page. The Marketo form works just fine on a Marketo landing page. When we embed it into the salesforce page it doesn't show up. I am wondering if it is being blocked by this Salesforce security release... Release Notes

I would assume this is the case however hopefully someone might have a workaround or an idea on how to get this to work. We would like to have a form that will create leads in Marketo from this Salesforce page.

Any help is much appreciated!

Thanks,

The chance of getting access to all Forms 2.0 functionality with LockerService on, even when using a custom-compiled Marketo forms library, is basically nil.

As much as I champion Marketo forms, they're ultimately a square peg in this context. I would recommend using Lightning native components to build your form, then posting data to the forms endpoint (which is already in your trusted remote sites).

Hi Andy,

A Marketo form is a Javascript in the first place. They originate from a Marketo server that you will have to declare as a trusted remote site in SFDC (setup -> security controls -> remote site settings).

Let's say your Marketo LP domain is info.mydomain.com. You will have to add info.mydomain.com as a trusted site in SFDC.

You als will have to pay attention to the fact that, by default, the forms2.0 api is called from a Marketo server in an embedded form:

<script src="//pod.marketo.com/js/forms2/js/forms2.min.js"></script>

<form id="mktoForm_9999"></form>

<script>MktoForms2.loadForm("//pod.marketo.com", "000-XXX-000", 9999);</script>

You may want to replace "pod.marketo.com" with your own LP subdomain in the scripts. Or you will have to declare pod.marketo.com as a trusted site in SFDC.

Hi Greg,

Thank you for your reply. I have tried what you suggested and added our marketo custom domain as a remote site in Salesforce and we are still not able to see the form. I also double checked the form embed script and it is populated with our marketo custom domain. If we disable the "Lightening LockerService Security" feature in Salesforce the forms shows up fine. The problem is in a couple months that feature will be enabled by default in Salesforce. Do you have any other thoughts or anything else that I might be able to try? I truly appreciate your help!

Thanks,

- Andy

I am wondering if it would be possible to build a custom lightning component or something like that? Or a visualforce page?

Possible? Yes. Has anyone proven it with fully working code?  Don't think so.
