Integration profile types

The CRM Integration Profiles page displays two profile types: default and custom.

Each supported CRM comes with a default profile. Supported default profiles can be edited but not deleted and display the label Default in the Profile type section. When no custom profile is assigned to a user, when they sign into a CRM they will inherit the default settings.

Custom profiles can be edited and deleted. When an agent is assigned to a custom profile that has been deleted, the agent is automatically assigned to a default profile.
