How does Fivetran capture deletes from Salesforce?
Environmentlink
Connector: Salesforce
Answerlink
In Salesforce, there are two types of deletes:
- Soft deletes
- Hard deletes
For more information, see Salesforce's documentation.
Fivetran fetches the soft-deleted records from Salesforce using the SObject Get Deleted
API endpoint.
Once you soft-delete a record in Salesforce, it resides in the Recycle Bin for 15 days, after which the record is hard-deleted from the Salesforce database. Salesforce does not provide the option to fetch the hard deleted record.
