## Description

Convert a SOAP XML payload received from Salesforce into JSON. Use this on the raw body delivered by an outbound-message trigger; it makes no API call. Every other Salesforce action already returns JSON, so this is only needed for outbound-message workflows. [See the documentation](https://developer.salesforce.com/docs/atlas.en-us.api.meta/api/sforce_api_om_outboundmessaging.htm)

## Props

| Prop | Type | Required | Description |
|---|---|---|---|
| `xml` | `string` | Yes | The object received from Salesforce that will be converted. |
| `extractNotificationOnly` | `boolean` | No | Whether to extract only the notification parts from the XML. Default: true. |
| `failOnError` | `boolean` | No | Whether the action should fail if an error occurs when extracting notifications. Default: false. |

## Run it

**MCP**

```ts
import { Client } from "@modelcontextprotocol/sdk/client/index.js"
import { StreamableHTTPClientTransport } from "@modelcontextprotocol/sdk/client/streamableHttp.js"
import { PipedreamClient } from "@pipedream/sdk"

const pd = new PipedreamClient({
  projectId: process.env.PIPEDREAM_PROJECT_ID!,
  clientId: process.env.PIPEDREAM_CLIENT_ID!,
  clientSecret: process.env.PIPEDREAM_CLIENT_SECRET!,
  projectEnvironment: "production",
})

const accessToken = await pd.rawAccessToken

const transport = new StreamableHTTPClientTransport(
  new URL("https://remote.mcp.pipedream.net/v3"),
  {
    requestInit: {
      headers: {
        Authorization: `Bearer ${accessToken}`,
        "x-pd-project-id": process.env.PIPEDREAM_PROJECT_ID!,
        "x-pd-environment": "production",
        "x-pd-external-user-id": "{external_user_id}", // any stable ID for this user in your system
        "x-pd-app-slug": "salesforce_rest_api",
      },
    },
  },
)

const mcp = new Client({ name: "my-agent", version: "1.0.0" })
await mcp.connect(transport)

const { tools } = await mcp.listTools()

// listTools() hands your model this tool's input schema, so it can
// fill the arguments itself:
const result = await mcp.callTool({
  name: "salesforce_rest_api-convert-soap-xml-to-json",
  arguments: {
    xml: "XML Soap Object",
    extractNotificationOnly: true,
  },
})
```
