Last updated
Last updated
This Data Flow template is made up of two Data Operations that allow app builders to keep track of calls by logging them as a task in Salesforce. This is achieved by connecting with the integration and then passing data to this Data Flow to create a record in Salesforce and save the call details in it as a task.
In Connection Builder, Data Flow templates can be found with pre-populated sample data. However, to meet the requirements of their Journey, app builders should perform the necessary adjustments, such as adding other Data Ops.
Bear in mind that in order to use Salesforce as a datasource, credentials must be set in Configuration Builder > Integrations to connect the corresponding account.
This Data Flow contains three parts:
The Start pane keeps track of the inputs required by the Data Flow.
