Step 4. Create a Salesforce Source Connection

Step 4. Create a Salesforce Source Connection

To archive Salesforce data, create a Salesforce source connection in Data Archive.
When you create a Salesforce connection in Data Archive, you configure connection details and decide whether or not to include records that are archived in Salesforce.
Salesforce has an internal archive functionality that archives eligible records from Salesforce objects. You can choose to include these records archived by Salesforce in your archive job by selecting the
Include Salesforce Archived Records
check box in the source connection. If you do not select this check box when you configure the source connection, any records that have been archived by Salesforce are not archived with the rest of the data.
This feature is enabled by default for both task and event objects in Salesforce. If you want to archive or purge the Task and Event entities, you must select this check box in the source connection.
When you select the
Include Salesforce Archived Records
check box in the source connection, the driver gets the records that are archived by Salesforce in addition to the soft-deleted records. If you use the same connection to archive data from any custom entities, it is your responsibility to filter out the soft-deleted records by appending "IsDeleted=false" in the entity's select, insert and delete query.
For more information about configuring a Salesforce source connection, see the "Source Connections" chapter in the
Data Archive Administrator Guide
