Assigning newly created leads to Queues in Saleforce

Hi,

When a lead fills out a form, I push to Salesforce with the following flow:

- If inferred Country equals United Kingdon (Example) then assign ownership to EMEA Queue.

The lead is created and synced to Salesforce, but no alert is sent by Salesforce to the Queue.  

I am thinking because the lead is being assigned to a queue before reaching Salesforce, that Salesforce is not triggering an email to the queue members. And yes, the button send to queue members is checked.

I know I can do some work arounds to make this work, but I am trying to keep it simple and for the Salesforce piece to work as expected.

Anyon else have this issue with assignments to queue from Marketo?

Thanks,
Jason

Are you sending the alert from Marketo flow?
Alerts can't be sent to Queue, only lead/contact owners. I found that out a number of years ago.

As our Trial downloads are like the 'Contact me now' We tend to sync to SFDC and allow SFDC to auto-assign to queues. Then our flow step will create a tasks for lead/contact owners then an alert if there was an existing lead or contact downloading a trial/filling out the trail form.

Tasks and alerts always fail if a lead is not owned by a lead owner.
