salesforce_eca

Salesforce ECA bridges the gap between Salesforce and Drupal's Event-Condition-Action (ECA) system, enabling automated workflows triggered by Salesforce synchronization events. Build powerful integrations without writing code.

Features

What does this module do?

• Exposes all Salesforce synchronization events (push/pull) to ECA's visual workflow builder
• Execute SOQL queries directly from ECA workflows and use results in subsequent actions
• Trigger immediate push/pull operations for specific entities without waiting for cron
• Provides Salesforce data as tokens that can be used in any ECA action

When to use this module:

• Automatically notify administrators when Salesforce sync fails
• Update related Drupal content when Salesforce data changes
• Create custom business logic around Salesforce synchronization
• Build complex integrations using ECA's visual interface instead of custom code
• Query Salesforce data on-demand for dynamic workflows

Key features:

• 10 Salesforce events available (push success/fail, pull stages, etc.)
• Full token support for all Salesforce data in workflows
• Graceful handling of optional Salesforce modules
• Rich error handling with detailed token output

Post-Installation

After installing and enabling this module:

1. Create ECA workflows: Navigate to /admin/config/workflow/eca and create a new model
2. Add Salesforce events: Look for "Salesforce:" prefixed events when adding triggers to your workflow
3. Configure actions: Use the included actions to execute SOQL queries or trigger push/pull operations
4. Use Salesforce tokens: Access Salesforce data through tokens in any ECA action

Configuration tips:

• Push/pull events only appear if respective Salesforce modules are enabled
• Test SOQL queries in Salesforce Developer Console first
• Use token browser to explore available Salesforce data in your workflows
• Check ECA logs at /admin/config/workflow/eca/log for debugging

Required:

• ECA (Event-Condition-Action) - The workflow automation framework
• Salesforce Suite - At minimum: salesforce and salesforce_mapping

Optional (enables additional features):

• Salesforce Push module - Required for push events and push action
• Salesforce Pull module - Required for pull events and pull action
