Property
Description
Ingestion Mode
The ingestion mode to load data into Salesforce Data Cloud.
Select one of the following modes based on the data volume, processing speed, and near real-time requirements:
  • - Streaming API. Select to process near-real-time micro-batch datasets.
  • - Bulk API. Select to load large datasets.
    • Before you use the Bulk API ingestion mode, you need to enable a property for the Secure Agent. For more information, see Enabling Bulk API ingestion mode.
Ingestion API Connector Name
The name of the Ingestion API connector used for data ingestion into Salesforce Data Cloud. This API specifies the structure and format of the payload data to ensure compatibility and efficient processing.
For example, in the URL, https://{instance_url}/api/v1/ingest/sources/EmpOrder/Order, the ingestion API connector name is EmpOrder.
Object Name
Name of the Salesforce data lake object where you want to load the data.
For example, in the URL, https://{instance_url}/api/v1/ingest/sources/EmpOrder/Order, the object name is Order.
Note: When you configure an incorrect object name, the Salesforce Data Cloud streaming API returns a success response, but you cannot read the data. This is a Salesforce Data Cloud limitation.
