Supported Versions
This Snap Pack is tested against Salesforce Service version 31.0 to 52.0.
All the Salesforce Snaps – except Salesforce Bulk Create, Salesforce Bulk Update, Salesforce Bulk Upsert, and Salesforce Bulk Delete – support Bulk API v1.0.
The following Salesforce Snaps support Bulk API v2.0:
Salesforce Bulk Create
Salesforce Bulk Update
Salesforce Bulk Upsert
Salesforce Bulk Delete
Note
title
Breaking change for Salesforce Pipelines configured with version lower than 31.0
If you have any existing Salesforce Pipelines configured with versions lower than 31.0, then your Pipelines will fail with an "Invalid service version" errorbecause Salesforce has deprecated its Platform API Versions 21.0 through 30.0. For this reason, we recommend that you immediately upgrade the API version to the lowest supported version (31.0) or the highest supported Salesforce version (55.0).
Note
Bulk API v1.0 works on Salesforce Service v20.0 to v43.0.
Bulk API v2.0 works on Salesforce Service v41.0 and above.
Improved Error Handling
Error handling has been improved to make it more user-friendly. Error messages now provide more clarity in terms of the nature of the error, the reason for the error, and the resolution that can be applied as opposed to a generic error message in earlier releases. A demonstration of this feature in the Salesforce Lookup, Salesforce Read, and Salesforce Create Snaps is as shown below:
with a new Maximum threadsfield. This field enables you to download query results simultaneously in multiple threads.

Stable
Upgraded with the latest SnapLogic Platform release.
CometD version upgrade from 5.0.9 to 7.0.6 (latest).
The simplified logging provides useful diagnostic information without logging any sensitive data.
The Snap asynchronously makes callbacks or listens to the CometD API to identify and respond to specific events.
The Snap processes the most recent message so that it can send that replay ID if there is a need to resubscribe. If the server responds with an invalid replay ID, the Snap automatically sets the Replay ID value to -2 to get all available messages.
Upgraded the Cometd version from 5.0.9 to the latest 7.0.6 version.
Fixed an issue where the Snap reported an error and stopped only at the next resubscribe attempt when it encountered the daily limit exceeded error. Now, the Snap displays the error and stops immediately when it encounters the daily limit exceeded error.
Simplified the logging that provides useful diagnostic information without logging any sensitive data.
Enhanced the Snap design to make the callbacks or listeners asynchronously by the Cometd API when there is a specific event, and the Snap responds accordingly.
Enhanced the tracking of replay ID of the most recent message processed so that Snap can send that replay ID if there is a need to resubscribe. If the server responds that the replay ID is invalid, Snap automatically sets theReplay IDvalue to-2to get all available messages.
Upgraded with the latest SnapLogic Platform release.

Enhanced the Salesforce Upsert Snap to support CSV payload using the new field Bulk Content Type in Bulk API mode as Salesforce API has recently been supporting CSV payload as well. Earlier, this Snap supported only XML data type; you can now select CSV content type from the Bulk Content Type drop-down list. The default content type is set to XML to preserve backward compatibility. This enhancement also addresses the null values issue during Bulk API mode.
Enhanced the Snaps in the Salesforce Snap Pack by updating the field labels to title case. If you have existing Pipelines using Salesforce Snaps that include the field names in the error messages, you must update those Pipelines to use the new field labels.
This Salesforce Snap patch contains an issue affecting the Salesforce Subscriber and Salesforce Publisher Snaps. If you do not use these Snaps in your Pipelines, then you can use this patch version. Else, we recommend you to not use this patch version as Pipelines will fail. We will fix this issue soon in an upcoming patch.
