In order to extract data from Salesforce using Alteryx. You need the following login credentials from Salesforce. Recently, I am trying to connect to “Salesforce Marketing Cloud (SMC)” where I do not find “Security Token” option. May be SMC does not use Security token. Any idea how to connect SMC using Alteryx?
Solved! Go to Solution.
It looks like the image you supplied is the configuration of the Salesforce Input tool. That tool, while a very helpful item in the Connectors palette, is not designed for SalesForce's other products. You need to be using the Download tool, useful for all manner of RESTful API connections. You'll want to get documentation from SalesForce to make the SMC connection with the Download tool. (Try this site to start, and this one covers how to get keys.)
A good overview of the Download tool and API connections in general is here.
I am working with SMC administrator to installed package in Marketing Cloud and add an API Integration component. Thanks for your response.
although i am currently working w/ the download tool to pull sfmc downloads from our ftp site, is there a way to build a 'live' connection to sfmc data extensions?
