Replicate Multiple Salesforce Einstein Accounts
Replicate multiple Salesforce Einstein accounts to one or many databases.
CData Sync for Salesforce Einstein is a stand-alone application that provides solutions for a variety of replication scenarios such as replicating sandbox and production instances into your database. Both Sync for Windows and Sync for Java include a command-line interface (CLI) that makes it easy to manage multiple Salesforce Einstein connections. In this article we show how to use the CLI to replicate multiple Salesforce Einstein accounts.
Configure Salesforce Einstein Connections
You can save connection and email notification settings in an XML configuration file. To replicate multiple Salesforce Einstein accounts, use multiple configuration files. Below is an example configuration to replicate Salesforce Einstein to SQLite:
Windows
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8" ?>
<CDataSync>
<DatabaseType>SQLite</DatabaseType>
<DatabaseProvider>System.Data.SQLite</DatabaseProvider>
<ConnectionString>OAuthClientId=MyConsumerKey;OAuthClientSecret=MyConsumerSecret;CallbackURL=http://localhost:portNumber;</ConnectionString>
<ReplicateAll>False</ReplicateAll>
<NotificationUserName></NotificationUserName>
<DatabaseConnectionString>Data Source=C:\my.db</DatabaseConnectionString>
<TaskSchedulerStartTime>09:51</TaskSchedulerStartTime>
<TaskSchedulerInterval>Never</TaskSchedulerInterval>
</CDataSync>
Java
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8" ?>
<CDataSync>
<DatabaseType>SQLite</DatabaseType>
<DatabaseProvider>org.sqlite.JDBC</DatabaseProvider>
<ConnectionString>OAuthClientId=MyConsumerKey;OAuthClientSecret=MyConsumerSecret;CallbackURL=http://localhost:portNumber;</ConnectionString>
<ReplicateAll>False</ReplicateAll>
<NotificationUserName></NotificationUserName>
<DatabaseConnectionString>Data Source=C:\my.db</DatabaseConnectionString>
</CDataSync>
Salesforce Einstein Analytics uses the OAuth 2 authentication standard. You will need to obtain the OAuthClientId and OAuthClientSecret by registering an app with Salesforce Einstein Analytics.
See the Getting Started section of the CData data provider documentation for an authentication guide.
Configure Queries for Each Salesforce Einstein Instance
Sync enables you to control replication with standard SQL. The REPLICATE statement is a high-level command that caches and maintains a table in your database. You can define any SELECT query supported by the Salesforce Einstein API. The statement below caches and incrementally updates a table of Salesforce Einstein data:
REPLICATE Dataset_Opportunity;
You can specify a file containing the replication queries you want to use to update a particular database. Separate replication statements with semicolons. The following options are useful if you are replicating multiple Salesforce Einstein accounts into the same database:
You can use a different table prefix in the REPLICATE SELECT statement:
REPLICATE PROD_Dataset_Opportunity SELECT * FROM Dataset_Opportunity
Alternatively, you can use a different schema:
REPLICATE PROD.Dataset_Opportunity SELECT * FROM Dataset_Opportunity
Run Sync
After you have configured the connection strings and replication queries, you can run Sync with the following command-line options:
Windows
SFEinsteinAnalyticsSync.exe -g MyProductionSFEinsteinAnalyticsConfig.xml -f MyProductionSFEinsteinAnalyticsSync.sql
Java
java -Xbootclasspath/p:c:\sqlitejdbc.jar -jar SFEinsteinAnalyticsSync.jar -g MyProductionSFEinsteinAnalyticsConfig.xml -f MyProductionSFEinsteinAnalyticsSync.sql
