3. Scroll down to the External Setup section.
4. Enter your CRM login ID and password in the Authentication tab.
5. Click the Screen Properties tab to make sure you have set it to Open new window for screenpop.

   Note: The integration fails if you do not select this option.

6. Save your settings.
   You are notified that Single Sign-On is not supported.
   
7. Follow the prompts to log in to your CRM account from 8x8 Agent Console.
8. Click Login.
9. Log in to your CRM account, and close the window.
10. Click Go to home in 8x8 Agent Console to launch your CRM.
11. Your CRM landing page launches from within the same browser instance or in a separate window, based on your external CRM settings in 8x8 Agent Console.
