Wellcome Edition (tap-salesforce)

This repo has been modified to use a JWT, private and consumer key to authenticate against the BULK SF API.

You can test this tap by doing the following:

# Set up a virtual env and activate it
python -m venv venv
source venv/bin/activate

# Compile the project
python setup.py sdist

# Install the package to the venv
pip install dist/tap-salesforce-1.5.5.tar.gz

You then need to configure a config.json file with the following

{
  "user": "<username>",
  "jwt_token": "<jwt_token>",
  "consumer_key": "<consumer_key>",
  "private_key": "<PATH_TO_PRIVATE_KEY>",
  "start_date": "2023-02-01T00:00:00Z",
  "api_type": "BULK",
  "select_fields_by_default": true,
  "lookback_window": 10,
  "is_sandbox": true
}

You can then run discovery to get a catalog of the data available. The select_fields_by_default setting will make it so that any fields in the catalog will be pre-selected to for syncing by default.

# Run discovery
venv/bin/tap-salesforce --config config.json --discover > catalog.json

To then sync data (for instance to local JSON)

venv/bin/tap-salesforce --config config.json --catalog catalog.json > data/data.json

Or something along those lines

Development

To make changes to this package you can install it in development mode:

# Set up a virtual env and activate it (if not already done)
python -m venv venv
source venv/bin/activate

# Install the package to the venv in dev mode
pip install -e .

This way you can make changes to the code locally and test as above, without rebuilding the package.
