Salesforce - Write Data to Salesforce

[Brock_Tibert]

I am looking to both read and write data to Salesforce, ideally with bulk operations.

I have the Salesforce extension added, but I only see three notes:

Is it possible to write data with these needs. My use case would be to read in a csv file, and likely upsert that data into a given object.

What’s interesting is that I see this example workflow with a node called Update Salesforce. I can’t find this node via search, but after adding the workflow to my local, I can see the node but it is limited to three objects in Salesforce.

Also, from the hub, I see other Salesforce nodes, but it’s unclear how I can add this extension.

In summary, I want to be able to read and write data to Salesforce, and I see some older examples, but want to make sure I am following the newest/best practices here.

Hey Brock,

I have not used Salesforce nodes myself, but can try and help you with getting those other nodes potentially installed.

It looks like they are part of this extension:

Salesforce Extension

It seems to be a community extension that is MIT licensed - if you have version 5.5x it should work via drag and drop.

If it doesn’t work make sure you have the community contributions update site activated in your preferences:

https://update.knime.com/community-contributions/5.5

Preferences => Install/Update => Available Software Sites

Thanks! I didn’t have the community extensions checked, which is why I wasn’t seeing that particular package.

I will close the question as this solves the original intent, though I am having some issues with very basic POCs. I will post elsewhere as needed.

Thanks again.
