6. In the Salesforce source settings you can customize the source nickname and schema name. The nickname is a label used in the Segment interface, and the schema name is the namespace you query against in your warehouse. Both can be whatever you like, but Segment recommends that you use something that reflects the source itself, like `Salesforce` for nickname and `sfdc`, `salesforce`, or `sfdc_prod` for the schema name. Configure Selective Sync to retrieve only specific objects and properties from Salesforce.
