Properties

Snowflake

Name = string

A human-readable name for the component.

Authentication Method = drop-down

Select the authentication method. Choose between a username/password combination or an OAuth.

Use Sandbox = boolean

No: Connect to a live Salesforce account. This is the default setting.
Yes: Connect to a sandbox Salesforce account.

Authentication = drop-down

Username = string

Provide a valid Salesforce username. Only used when Authentication Method is set to User/Password.

Password = drop-down

The secret definition containing the password for your Salesforce account. Your password should be saved as a secret definition before using this component. Only used when Authentication Method is set to User/Password.

Security Token = drop-down

The secret definition holding your Salesforce security token. Your security token should be saved as a secret definition before using this component. Only used when Authentication Method is set to User/Password.

Authentication = drop-down

The secret definition holding your Salesforce OAuth credentials. Your OAuth credentials should be saved as a secret definition before using this component. Only used when Authentication Method is set to OAuth.

Use Bulk API = drop-down

No: Write up to 200 rows in real-time. This is the default setting.
Yes: Write up to 10,000 rows asynchronously in the background. This can't be cancelled before completion.

Connection Options = column editor

Parameter: A JDBC parameter supported by the database driver. The available parameters are explained in the data model. Manual setup is not usually required, since sensible defaults are assumed.
Value: A value for the given parameter.

Database = drop-down

The Snowflake database. The special value, [Environment Default], will use the database defined in the environment. Read Databases, Tables and Views - Overview to learn more.

Schema = drop-down

The Snowflake schema. The special value, [Environment Default], will use the schema defined in the environment. Read Database, Schema, and Share DDL to learn more.

Source Table = drop-down

Select the source table from which data will be unloaded (output). The tables available in the dropdown selection depend on the source schema.

Target Object = drop-down

Select the Salesforce object (table) into which local data will be loaded (input).

Output Operation = drop-down

Select the output operation to be performed into the target object. Available operations include Delete, Insert, Update, and Upsert.

Column Mappings = column editor

Specify the columns in the source table that will be unloaded (output).

On Warnings = drop-down

Continue: Continue with the load if an error is raised.
Fail: Fail the run if an error is raised.

Batch Size = integer

This is optional, and specifies the number of rows to load to the target between each commit. On a very large export, this may be desirable to keep the size of the log files from growing very large before the data is committed.

Relationship Columns = column editor

Click + to add a relationship column. For each column, enter the following:

Parent Object: Drop-down list of available parent target objects. For example, if the "child" is User, the "parent" could be Account.
Relationships: The relationship to the parent relationship column. For example, OwnerId is a relationship column in Account, but the relationship is named Owner.
Type: Relationship columns refer to specific target objects. For example, OwnerId in Account refers to User. However, polymorphic objects like OwnerId in Event can refer to Calendar or User, but only one may be used.
Index Column: The name of the column that uniquely identifies the parent target object. The User of the parent target object is identified by the Email column in User.

Debug Level = drop-down

The level of verbosity with which your debug information is logged. Levels above 1 can log huge amounts of data and result in slower execution. On used when Auto Debug is On.
