Introducing

MDP’s Salesforce adapter dramatically reduces the time, effort, and complexity of inbound bulk message handling integration scenarios between SAP and non-SAP systems to Salesforce.

How it Works

The MDP Salesforce Adapter for CPI leverages Bulk API v2 to execute SOQL(Salesforce Object Query Language) queries to Salesforce from SAP/Non-SAP systems or push data from Salesforce to SAP/Non-SAP systems

They say a picture paints a thousand words so let’s dive right in and take a look at the before and after pics of your Integration Flows.

This is how your iFlow looks without the MDP Salesforce Adapter ☹

This is how your iFlow looks using the MDP Salesforce adapter ?

Looks a lot cleaner and simpler, right? Now let’s take a closer look at the processes involved for this scenario:

First off,  the standard method.

• XML to CSV (Optional)
• Get Session Id with SOAP API or use Oauth2 Authentication Method.
• Create Job and put sessionId to HTTP Header.
• Store Job ID (optional)
• Load Data and put sessionId to HTTP Header.
• Close Job and put sessionId to HTTP Header.

Now compare the process for the same integration scenario using MDP’s Salesforce Bulk API v2 Adapter for SAP Cloud Platform Integration.

• XML to CSV(Optional)
• Send Data
• Store Job ID(Optional)
