Thanks for the intro, @Jon_Chen !

Hi everyone - great to meet you all! I'm excited to work together over the next few weeks on a collective journey towards Marketo Certification. Would love to see everyone introduce themselves here in this thread, so we can get to know each other a little better.

I'll post in this group regularly throughout the duration of this program, but as Jon mentioned, feel free to post questions as they come up and I'll see how I can help. Chances are, others in this group may have the same questions. And if you know the answer to someone else's question, feel free to jump in!

I hope everyone is doing well! I watched the migration/merge video and in that conversation there were a couple of statements that they weren't completely sure about that I need clarification on:

Is it true that you would need a brand new Marketo instance if you were integrating a new SFDC instance? Or would it be possible to connect a new SFDC instance with a current Marketo instance?
Can the durable unsubscribe table be migrated? And when they mention this, does this mean that if I were to migrate an unsubscribed record from one Marketo to another, I wouldn't have to run them through the unsubscribe process?

Thank you!

Rachel_Noble

Great questions!

Is it true that you would need a brand new Marketo instance if you were integrating a new SFDC instance? Or would it be possible to connect a new SFDC instance with a current Marketo instance?

This is correct! Once you have a Marketo instance integrated with an SFDC instance, you cannot integrate that same Marketo instance with any other SFDC instance. Companies migrating to a new SFDC instance also need a new Marketo instance.

Can the durable unsubscribe table be migrated? And when they mention this, does this mean that if I were to migrate an unsubscribed record from one Marketo to another, I wouldn't have to run them through the unsubscribe process?

This is a great question that I actually don't know the answer to! @Jon_Chen can you help?

Rachel_Noble
