What You'll Get

By combining Time Warp (a free Salesforce component) with Heeet data, your sales and marketing teams gain a single, beautifully designed view of every touchpoint that shaped a lead: which channels brought them in, which content they consumed, and when.

No more switching between tools. Everything is right there on the Salesforce record.

Prerequisites

Before starting, make sure you have:

  • An active Heeet account with data flowing into Salesforce
  • Salesforce Admin access (you'll need to edit Custom Metadata)
  • The Time Warp AppExchange package installed (see Step 1)

Step 1 — Install Time Warp

Install the free Time Warp package from the AppExchange:https://appexchange.salesforce.com/appxListingDetail?listingId=a0N3u00000ONnm7EAD

Time Warp was created by the SalesforceLabs team. It adds a visual timeline to any Salesforce record, surfacing all related activities in chronological order.

Step 2 — Open Custom Metadata in Setup

In Salesforce, go to Setup → Custom Metadata Types, then find Timeline Configuration and click Manage Records.

Step 3 — Create the "Marketing Influence" Metadata Record

Click New and fill in the following parameters:

Field Value
Label Marketing Influence
Timeline Configuration Name Influence
Parent Object Lead
Object Name Heeet__Heeet_Digital_Channel_Influence__c
Relationship Name Heeet__Lead_Heeet_Digital_Channel_Influences__r
Detail Field Heeet__InfluenceType__c
Position Date Field Heeet__Last_Activity_Date__c
Icon /img/icon/t4v35/standard/data_integration_hub.svg
Icon Background Colour #1C1955

Click Save.

Step 4 — Create the "Content Influence" Metadata Record

Click New again and fill in these parameters:

Field Value
Label Website Content
Timeline Configuration Name Website_Content
Parent Object Lead
Object Name Heeet__Content_Influence__c
Relationship Name Heeet__Content_Influences__r
Detail Field Name
Position Date Field Heeet__Iso_Date__c
Icon /img/icon/t4v35/standard/marketing_actions.svg
Icon Background Colour #FF948E

Click Save.

That's It — You're Done

You've now configured two timeline entries in Salesforce: one for Marketing Channel Influence (showing which channels touched the lead) and one for Content Influence (showing which pages or assets they engaged with, and when).

Navigate to any Lead record and add the Time Warp component to the page layout to see it in action.

Summary

Time Warp + Heeet gives your revenue team a shared source of truth on every lead's journey, directly inside Salesforce. Two metadata configurations are all it takes to surface marketing channel data and content engagement in a clear, chronological timeline — helping sales prioritise outreach and helping marketing prove impact.
