Zato Blog: Enterprise Python: Integrating with Salesforce
- Salesforce connections are now available in Zato 3.2 for managing Salesforce records and business data with basic REST APIs and Python objects.
- The process includes creating Salesforce credentials, defining a Salesforce connection in Zato, authoring an integration service in Python, and testing the integration.
- Credentials needed for the integration are username, password, consumer key, and consumer secret, usually obtained from a Salesforce connected app.
- Zato handles authentication and authorization tokens based on the provided credentials, simplifying the integration process for users.
- Creating a Salesforce connection in Zato Dashboard involves inputting the obtained credentials and setting up the connection details.
- An integration service like creating Salesforce campaigns can be developed in Python using REST methods to interact with Salesforce endpoints.
- A SimpleIO definition can be used to structure the input and output for the service, facilitating the handling of data between the service and Salesforce.
- HTTP Basic Auth credentials can be assigned to the REST channel in Zato to enable client authentication, ensuring secure communication with Salesforce.
- Testing the integration can be done by invoking the REST channel using tools like curl, allowing interaction with Salesforce and verifying the functionality.
- By following the steps outlined, users can effectively integrate their applications with Salesforce using Zato and expose REST channels for seamless integration.
