Salesforce
Salesforce 连接器助您在 Designer 中连接至 Salesforce。
Salesforce is available as a data source in the Input Data tool and Output Data tool, and as the standalone Salesforce Input and Salesforce Output tool.
Designer 中的新连接器版本
Salesforce 连接器现在是 Alteryx One 连接器体验的一部分。请仔细阅读此页面上的信息,以确保您正确使用相应的工具。
如果您想更新 Designer 工作流中的 Salesforce 连接器,可以使用工作流迁移实用程序。
Salesforce 连接器详细信息
Salesforce 已在 Designer 2025.2 补丁 3 或更高版本中作为输入数据工具的数据源提供。如需详细了解文件类型选项,请转至 [links]。

安装连接器
通过附加组件,您可以轻松从 Designer 安装最新版本的 Salesforce 连接器。如果以这种方式安装连接器,则无需访问 Alteryx Marketplace。
要安装连接器…
在 Designer 中,转至附加组件 > 管理 Marketplace 附加组件。
Designer 将打开一个包含可用连接器列表的窗口。
键入 Salesforce 进行搜索。
使用 DCM 设置连接
要使用 DCM 连接到 Salesforce...
将输入数据或输出数据工具从工具面板拖到画布上并选择它。
如果您之前创建过 Google Drive 连接,则可以选择数据源 > Salesforce > 快速连接,然后跳至第 12 步。
If you've created a Salesforce connection before, you can select the connection from the Recents tab.
Select + New. From the list of technologies, select Salesforce.
在数据连接窗口中,选择数据源。
Select +New.
Specify the connection name and the data source name. Select the Environment.
In the Credentials section, select your authentication method, and enter the credential name. For more information, see Authentication Methods.
选择保存。您也可以在保存之前测试连接。
选择连接。Salesforce 可能会请求身份验证。
在文件浏览器窗口中选择要读取或写入的文件。
在选项窗口中选择读取或写入配置。
选择确认以创建与该文件的连接。您可以继续构建您的工作流。
Input and Output Tools
The Salesforce Input and Output tools are used to read from and write to Salesforce.
Salesforce Input
Salesforce Input reads standard and custom objects. You can read in three ways:
Query Builder: Pick an object and select the fields you want to read. The field picker offers a multiselect list with Select All, search by string or substring, a live count of selected versus total fields, and a filter to show only what's selected. A record limit can also be set. Four field modes are available: Read all Standard Fields, Read all Custom Fields, Read all Fields, and Choose Manually.
Custom Query (SOQL): Write a SOQL query to read standard and custom objects, including
__rrelationship fields, then validate it before running. A custom query always returns a single table.Read from Report: Browse and search saved reports, select one report, and parse its results.
Salesforce Output
Salesforce Output writes rows to a standard or custom object. Choose an action:
Insert: Add new records.
Update: Modify existing records. Requires the Salesforce record ID.
Delete: Remove records. Requires the Salesforce record ID.
Upsert: Insert new records and update existing ones in a single action.
Output processes records in batches and lets you choose the Salesforce API version. When you use Update, Delete, or Upsert, include the record ID as the primary key in your data.
Object Model
Salesforce stores data in objects, which behave like database tables:
Standard objects are built in, for example Account, Contact, Lead, Opportunity, Case, Campaign, Task, Event, and User.
Custom objects are created in your org and end with
__c, for exampleInvoice__c.Relationship fields between objects use the
__rsuffix and can be referenced in SOQL.
身份验证方法
Salesforce 支持…
Method | Required Fields | Desktop (Flagship) | Cloud (Alteryx One) |
|---|---|---|---|
Built-in app (OAuth 2.0) | None | Yes | Not available (built-in connection creation is not offered on Cloud) |
Custom app (OAuth 2.0) | Client ID, Client Secret, Redirect URI (default | Yes | Yes |
Salesforce Credentials (username, password, security token) | Username, Password, Security Token (optional), Client ID, Client Secret | Yes | Yes |
Custom domain across all methods | NA | Yes | Not available (custom domain is not supported for all methods on Cloud) |
OAuth supports both the Authorization Code flow (user to app) and the Client Credentials flow (service principal, for headless or scheduled automation).
Migration to Unified Connector
If you already use the Salesforce connector in Alteryx, read the section below. It walks through what has been changed in the unified version.
Parameter | Legacy Connector | Unified Connector (v6.1.0) |
|---|---|---|
Platforms and Tools | Desktop (Input and Output) Cloud (Input only) | Desktop (Input and Output) Cloud (Input and Output, in progress) |
Framework | Python SDK (Desktop) CData ODBC driver (Cloud) | EACD framework (Desktop and Cloud) |
Communication / API | Salesforce API v52 (Summer '21) | Salesforce API v61+ (Summer '24) |
Auth methods | OAuth 2.0 Username + Password + Security Token | Same methods, with expanded configuration |
Connection model | Separate Production / Sandbox / Custom URL choices | DCM, with a single Environment URL field |
Key Changes
Production, Sandbox, and Custom URL dropdown options have been replaced by a single Environment URL field. Reconfigure any workflow that used this dropdown.
Environment URL replaces the old dropdown:
https://login.salesforce.com(production, default),https://test.salesforce.com(sandbox), or your custom domain.Salesforce Credentials authentication now also requires Client ID and Client Secret.
On Desktop, custom domains now work with all authentication methods (previously OAuth only).
Existing workflows can be migrated using the Alteryx Workflow Migration Utility in Designer 2025.2 Patch 3 or later. For more information, see workflow migration utility.
注意
The migration utility is available on Desktop only.
After installing the unified connector, you may see both the legacy and unified Salesforce technologies listed in Manage Connections. This is expected during the transition. Use the unified connector for any new work.
Limitations
The connector does not support a dry run for reads or custom queries. Run the workflow to retrieve data, or use the SOQL validation step to check a custom query before running.
For objects with more than 200 fields, the Read all Custom Fields and Read all Fields modes fail. Use Choose Manually to pick the fields you need, or write a SOQL Custom Query that lists specific fields.
A SOQL Custom Query always returns one table. To combine data from multiple objects, join them within the SOQL query, or use multiple Input tools and blend the results in the workflow.
Read from Report supports selecting a single Report per Input tool. To read multiple reports, use multiple input tools.
The connector uses the Salesforce REST API. The Salesforce Bulk API is not yet supported. For very large reads or writes, expect REST API throughput and Salesforce API limits to apply.
The object and field data preview is available on Cloud but not on Desktop. On Desktop, configure fields using the Query Builder field list or a SOQL query.
On Cloud, custom domain support across all authentication methods is not available. Use a supported method for your Cloud connection, or connect from Desktop where custom domain works with all methods.
The workflow migration utility runs on Desktop only.
On Cloud, the built-in app connection creation flow is not offered. Use a Custom OAuth app or Salesforce Credentials on Cloud.
The datatypes produced from the same object can differ between Cloud and Desktop.
On Cloud, loading a dataset can fail for some objects. If a specific object does not load, try a SOQL Custom Query for that object or reduce the selected fields.
The connector is generally available on Desktop. Cloud support is in progress and not yet generally available.
