Salesforce Overview#

The Salesforce (REST API) provides a powerful platform for creating and managing customer relationships with a wide array of features like data manipulation, querying, and complex automation. With Pipedream's serverless execution, you can create workflows that automate your sales processes, sync data with other platforms, enhance customer engagement, and trigger actions based on specific events. Dive into Salesforce data, streamline lead management, track customer interactions, and push or pull data to or from Salesforce seamlessly.

Trigger Configuration#

This component may be configured based on the props defined in the component code. Pipedream automatically prompts for input values in the UI and CLI.

Label	Prop	Type	Description
Salesforce	`salesforce`	`app`	This component uses the Salesforce app.
N/A	`db`	`$.service.db`	This component uses `$.service.db` to maintain state between executions.
N/A	`http`	`$.interface.http`	This component uses `$.interface.http` to generate a unique URL when the component is first instantiated. Each request to the URL will trigger the `run()` method of the component.
	`timer`	`$.interface.timer`	The timer is only used as a fallback if instant event delivery (webhook) is not available.
Object Type	`objectType`	`string`	Select a value from the drop down menu.
Fields to Obtain	`fieldsToObtain`	`string[]`	Select a value from the drop down menu.

Trigger Authentication#

Salesforce uses OAuth authentication. When you connect your Salesforce account, Pipedream will open a popup window where you can sign into Salesforce and grant Pipedream permission to connect to your account. Pipedream securely stores and automatically refreshes the OAuth tokens so you can easily authenticate any Salesforce API.

Pipedream requests the following authorization scopes when you connect your account:

Remove background on Remove.bg

Description:Remove the background of an image

Version:0.1.1

Key:remove_bg-remove-background

View on GitHub

Remove.bg Overview#

Remove.bg is a powerful API for automatic image background removal, allowing developers to seamlessly strip backgrounds from images and photos. Integrating Remove.bg in Pipedream workflows enables the creation of automated processes for graphic design, e-commerce product listings, profile picture moderation, and more. The API uses sophisticated AI algorithms to detect and separate foreground elements from their backgrounds, offering a clean and precise cutout that can be used across various applications.
