Sales Enablement Community Components

Sales Enablement Community Components is a Salesforce Labs App that is intended to be an extension of the Trail Tracker application. It is intended for use by customers of Sales Enablement who want to expose a clickable interface for Sales Enablement content in their Experience Cloud Portal. These components can surface metadata from Trail Tracker and auto-generate Single-Sign-On URLs for people who leverage Trailblazer.me authentication or Salesforce Identity for Sales Enablement configuration to get people into the subdomain faster. These components do not currently support the new functionality for Sales Enablement Content Collections, but we hope to provide an update in the future to account for this functionality.
