What are the manual steps to connect Salesforce to BigQuery?

The manual process of connecting Salesforce to BigQuery involves exporting tables from the Salesforce data explorer panel to Cloud Storage in CSV format. The file is then downloaded and imported into the Data Explorer section of BigQuery through the Batch Ingestion option.

  • The Salesforce data explorer panel allows users to select the tables they wish to export.
  • The exported tables are saved in Cloud Storage in CSV format, which is a widely used format for data transfer.
  • The downloaded file is then imported into BigQuery, a robust data warehouse that enables super-fast SQL queries using the processing power of Google's infrastructure.

What are other methods to connect Salesforce to BigQuery?

Aside from the manual method, Salesforce can be connected to BigQuery using Cloud Data Fusion, REST API, SOAP API, Bulk API, Streaming API, and Data Loader. These methods offer different features and capabilities for data integration and management.

  • Cloud Data Fusion is a cloud-native data integration service that allows building and managing code-free data pipelines.
  • REST API and SOAP API are web service protocols supporting XML and JSON, respectively, and are designed to work with Salesforce objects.
  • Bulk API and Streaming API are specialized RESTful APIs for loading, querying large volumes of data, and setting up notifications for data changes.

How to schedule a Salesforce transfer to BigQuery?

Scheduling a Salesforce transfer to BigQuery can be done through the Google Cloud console. It involves creating a transfer, choosing Salesforce as the source, and providing a name for the transfer in the Transfer config name section.

  • The Google Cloud console provides an interface for managing Google Cloud resources, including BigQuery.
  • The transfer configuration name is a user-defined identifier for the transfer, which helps in managing and tracking the transfer process.
