Salesforce - Download Data to Platform

Overview

Before using the blueprint, gather the following:

Salesforce Credentials: Including the access token, consumer key, consumer secret, username, password, security token, and domain. CSV File Parameters: Desired filename for the resulting CSV. List of field names you want to export. The Salesforce object type you're exporting from (e.g., Account, Contact).

Workflow: The blueprint first establishes a connection with Salesforce using the provided credentials. It then requests the data from the specified Salesforce object and fields. The extracted data is saved into a CSV file, which will be named as per your input and given a ".csv" extension if not already present. Error Handling:

Should there be any issues with authentication or data extraction, the blueprint will provide clear feedback, ensuring you're always informed.
