Troubleshooting Salesforce Connector 10.14 - Mule 4

To troubleshoot Anypoint Connector for Salesforce (Salesforce Connector), become familiar with the information about performing general troubleshooting and interpreting commonly thrown exception messages.

Perform General Troubleshooting

Here is a list of general troubleshooting guidelines for Salesforce Connector:

Currency

Currency values cannot exceed 18 characters in length.

When working with multiple currencies, you must know which currency your sObject uses to avoid inaccurate entries. The default currency matches the location at the organization level.

Evaluate Values in a Salesforce List

When using a value to evaluate against contents of an existing list field in Salesforce, use the exact value in the list. For example, if you use the value US to evaluate against contents of a list that contains the value USA, the evaluation works, but the result returns two values in the list: one for US and one for USA.

Insert Values in a Salesforce Connector List

Inserting dependent values into an existing list in Salesforce Connector does not always work. Test to confirm this functionality.

Japanese Support

Salesforce Connector supports Japanese characters for all operations, with the following exceptions:

  • The Publish Streaming Channel operation does not support Japanese characters in the Channel name field, which can contain only alphanumeric characters, and the _ or / characters. Refer to the Salesforce StreamingChannel documentation for more information.

  • Metadata operations might return error messages if some fields contain Japanese characters. For example, creating custom objects or custom fields with a Full Name that contains Japanese characters triggers a FIELD_INTEGRITY_EXCEPTION error with the following message:
    The Object Name field can only contain underscores and alphanumeric characters. It must be unique, begin with a letter, not include spaces, not end with an underscore, and not contain two consecutive underscores.

Limits on API Calls

You must know the scope of the rate limiting policy that applies to your account so that you do not exceed the number of allotted API calls per day.

Opportunity Object

When extracting data from a Salesforce Opportunity object, be aware that a quarter in this context is relative to the fiscal year of the organization and not necessarily to the calendar year.

Understand Commonly Thrown Exceptions

    The provided input data for an operation is not valid.
