# Login & Connect CRM

> Get up and running with Endgame in minutes

<Info>
  [Implementation Guide](/implementation-guide/overview) · Module 1 of 9 · \~5 minutes
</Info>

Getting started with Endgame is simple. You will receive an invitation via email from the Endgame team to login and begin your integrations setup.

## Pre-flight checklist

<Tip>
  **Best practice:** Connect with a dedicated [API Integration User](/integrations/salesforce#optional-api-integration-user) instead of a personal account.
</Tip>

The connecting user (or API Integration User) needs read access to **all fields** on the following Salesforce objects:

  <Card>
    * RecordType
    * OpportunityLineItem
    * OpportunityContactRole
    * Campaign
    * CampaignMember
    * Note
    * OpportunityHistory
  </Card>
</CardGroup>

## What happens next?

Once you have things connected, Endgame will automatically start ingesting your Salesforce data. This can take some time, and our team will reach out when it's ready.

<Info>
  Data ingestion typically takes a day or two, depending on the size of your Salesforce instance. The Endgame team will be in touch when your data is ready.

<Tip>
  You don't need to wait for ingestion to finish. Click **Connect Additional Services** and continue to the next module to start configuring your instance while your data syncs in the background.
